The Derby and Derbyshire Safeguarding Children Partnership (DDSCP) delivers a wide range of multi-agency training and learning opportunities for practitioners across Derby and Derbyshire.

The DDSCP Training Pathway 2023 provides guidance on the levels of training offered by DDSCP and pathways of learning for staff to complete. The levels of training reflect the requirement of different groups of staff to meet their responsibilities and should be read together with single agency procedures and sector guidance such as:
