Programmes and training

We advocate the use of evidence-based approaches in all services and are establishing what is required to support staff to get good outcomes. We mainly deliver training to professionals who work with parents, teachers and/or children.

The Incredible Years® series of programmes are a suite of programmes for parents, teachers and children created by Carolyn Webster-Stratton in the USA. The centre no longer offer training to deliver these programmes, however we continue to sell resources. The Incredible Years® series has a strong evidence base demonstrating its effectiveness in delivering effective and sustained change in parent, teacher and child behaviour.

The KiVa school based Anti-bullying programme for schools, delivered by teachers both prevents bullying and tackles bullying incidents effectively. The programme has been developed by the University of Turku, Finland and is used in 90% of comprehensive schools in Finland. There is growing evidence of its effectiveness both in the UK and Finland. The programme is currently available for Key Stage 2 pupils and covers approximately 50% of the English and Welsh PSE curricula. CEIT is the only licenced training organisation for the KiVa programme in the UK. Visit the KiVa International web page here: http://www.kivaprogram.net/wales

The Enhancing Parenting Skills (EPaS)^© Programme is a one-to-one therapist delivered intervention for parents of children aged 2 – 9 who are presenting with behavioural challenges that may or may not be linked to other developmental difficulties. (Spring training, dates TBC)
