The Fostering Network's training department in Scotland offers:

In-house courses

We can design a course for you and your colleagues and deliver it at a venue of your choice. All our standard in-house courses are contained in our annually-updated course catalogue.

We customise all our courses to ensure that they meet your specific needs. However, should a course you're interested in not appear in the catalogue, please do contact us as we can design individual, tailor-made training courses, especially for your fostering service or agency.


Open access course programmes

Some of the courses featured in the in-house training catalogue are also available as part of our annual programme of open courses. Choosing an open course is a cost-effective alternative for fostering services and other relevant agencies seeking training for small numbers of participants.
