The government’s Prevent duty guidance requires universities to demonstrate that they are 'willing to undertake Prevent awareness training'; the guidance is not prescriptive about the format or content of the training and a broad interpretation, including general awareness-raising, briefings incorporated with other training etc is acceptable.
The University's Co-Director of Student Welfare and Support Services runs an annual Prevent briefing session for those with welfare responsibilities in departments and colleges - Understanding the Prevent Duty – extended presentation (60 minutes) has been recorded and is available to view online. A shorter version of the session - Understanding the Prevent Duty (30 minute course) - is also available as a ‘refresher’ for those who have completed the training in previous years and for those staff who need to have an awareness of the Duty and what to do if they have concerns, but do not need as in-depth knowledge.
A 2-page Prevent summary is also available.
