In-house training and resources

In-house training 

Knowing that your training budgets may be limited, we're looking for ways to make our training courses more affordable for you and your teams.

Below is a list of courses that can be delivered at your workplace, meaning your whole team can be trained at once, limiting their time away from the office and saving you money on travel and accommodation.

The demand for in-house training is high. For availability of topics and trainers we suggest you book at least eight weeks in advance. Email events@rcpsych.ac.uk to find out more or to make a booking.
