WST Training Update, August 2021

Wolverhampton Safeguarding

Training update


To be able to monitor attendance by sector and role we have made some changes to the information we request when registering for courses.

When booking training you will be asked to update these details, or you can log on and check your details are correct. If you have moved employers/organisations please don’t create a new account, you simply need to change your details, place of work and email address. This ensures that all your training record is one place.  Any queries please email wsttraining@wolverhampton.gov.uk

Please can we remind everyone to cancel places if they are no longer needed to accommodate people on the waiting list.

There are waiting lists for some dates in the autumn but there is still capacity for final dates in the new year.  We suggest if you are on a waiting list for the autumn to book on the courses in the new year to ensure you have access to the training. 

To cancel your registration for training, please visit your training account and go to 'My Events'
