PACE Training Course Train the Trainers

This course engages and challenges delegates to think. It encourages and motivates delegates to respond to children and young people in a positive manner, recognising the impact of negative early attachment and its resulting effects on the child. The course teaches and guides delegates on how to begin the journey of formulating a secure base through attunement and meeting the child's needs. The course allows delegates to recognise that their care toward a child can significantly impact a child's development in a way that creates positive outcomes.

PACE (Playfulness Acceptance Curiosity Empathy) training provides delegates with a different approach to parenting children who have experienced trauma. Children and young people who have not experienced a secure base with meaningful attachment may have difficulty expressing their emotions. They may do so in a manner that might lead to them being viewed negatively. The child’s needs and abilities may have been affected. Pace training provides a positive and much needed frame of reference with guidelines. Using Pace will provide foster carers and anyone working with children who have experienced trauma, with useful tools to engage and support them.
