Course content

This course will give you a clear understanding of what domestic violence and abuse are, who is most at risk, and how to help both adult and child victims.

Through studying the Domestic Abuse & Violence Awareness Diploma Course, you’ll learn not just how to recognise and understand domestic abuse and violence, but be given the tools to aid its victims. You’ll explore interventions, learn how to offer support to a child or young adult, and examine the underlying factors that can help children to build resilience and cope with the facts of their abuse.

Similarly, you’ll discover the tools to help adults you suspect are being subjected to domestic violence and advice on how to recognise the signs and approach somebody with sensitivity and in confidence. You’ll develop a detailed knowledge of what a safety/crisis plan is and what needs to be included in it and the components included in a post-separation safety plan.

If you wish to work with victims of domestic abuse and violence, the course introduces you to the vacancies available in the voluntary sector, and the tasks that are likely to be undertaken by a volunteer. It also looks at paid positions, guiding you through the roles of an independent domestic violence advisor, a victim liaison officer and a support worker in a safe house or refuge.

You’ll also learn about the work of MARACs, including their aims and processes and why they are an important part of the solution to the UK’s domestic abuse problem.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Explain what domestic violence and abuse is and identify who is at risk.
• Be aware of the most common components of abuse and be able to describe the cycle of abuse.
• Have an awareness of how domestic violence begins and who may perpetuate the abuse.
• Describe the physical, psychological and emotional effects of domestic abuse and violence on adults, young people and children at risk.
• Recognise common behaviours that may indicate abusive tendencies in an individual.
• Know how to respond appropriately to children and young people experiencing domestic abuse.
• Describe best practices for supporting those experiencing domestic violence.
• Know what MARAC is and be able to outline the MARAC Process.
• Understand what may be expected of you should you volunteer in the field of domestic abuse support.
• Be aware of some of the jobs available, should you want to embark on a career in this field.
