RiP online learning workshop - Developing professional curiosity for child and family practitioners
This is a one day learning workshop organised by our partner - Research in Practice. This full day interactive session is delivered online and participants are encouraged to contribute with the aid of breakout rooms, the chat function and large group discussions.
Description
This workshop will support practitioners to build skills and knowledge to embed professional curiosity as a central component to their practice. Professionally curious practitioners interrogate and test out information rather than accepting it as face value, triangulating information from different sources in order to gain clarity, identity concerns, and enable a fuller understanding of a child, young person or families’ situation. Participants will describe professional curiosity, examine the importance of professional curiosity in children’s social care and explore different tolls and practices to support professionally curious practice.
