Overview

It’s estimated that 31% of young people had a traumatic experience during childhood, and that one in four meet the criteria for PTSD. 


But what is PTSD, how does it relate to the two other main trauma-based stress disorders and how might we detect it in our learners?

This webinar will explore the subject of trauma and its associated disorders, as well as what treatment exists.

Key for organisations is the subject of trauma-informed approaches – how a learning provider can take a learner’s trauma into account when designing their learning, and what adjustments to the learning environment can prove beneficial.
