Course Summary

Radicalisation is a complex, controversial and serious worldwide issue which is described by the UK Youth Offending Team as a process of ‘personal and political transformation’.

In recent years, advances in communication methods (including social media) and changing models of the radiation process and methods of acts of terrorism, mean that more people are vulnerable to the influences of radicalisation than ever before and it is essential for support teams to know what radicalisation is and to recognise and act on potential early indicators.

This training course confirms what radicalisation is and how vulnerable people are influenced using different factors and ideologies, describes the different theories and models of radicalisation and explains the meaning of ‘pathways to radicalisation’.

This training course confirms the meaning and purpose of the Prevent Duty and Channel Programme, clarifies the requirements which this place on support organisations to comply and defines the action to take if concerns are raised. This is an accredited course.
