Please note: KSCMP courses are general multi-agency courses and do not offer any sector specific guidance, unless specifically titled as being for education. Education colleagues are advised that Keeping Children Safe In Education (KCSIE) and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements are not covered in the Basic Awareness or Designated Practitioner courses. Additional training may be required for education staff to meet all training needs. Education settings may find it useful to review training available to be commissioned from the LADO Education Safeguarding Advisory Service (LESAS).

Dates for all upcoming classroom and virtual courses and learning events can be found on our 'What's on' webpage.

Training charges

To support the long-term sustainability of the KSCMP Learning and Development programme, £50 training administration charge will apply from 1st April 2026 for anyone attending a face-to-face or virtual delivered course who is from an organisation that does not financially contribute to the Partnership.

Key information:

• The  £50 charge applies per attendance on a face-to-face or delivered course for non-financially contributing organisations.
• Financially contributing organisations are exempt from the charge (the full list can be found below). If your organisation is not listed by name, you are not exempt.
• Details on how to pay the charge is included in the booking information for each course within MeLearning. Learners have 7-days from the date of booking to pay the charge (or contact the KSCMP Business Team if longer is required) or the space will be automatically cancelled.
• There are some courses the charge does not apply to (for example, those delivered by the Kent and Medway Prevent Team) - details  can be found in the training catalogue, as well as in the booking information in the MeLearning portal.
• E-learning and recorded webinars remain free for all learners.
• A £50 non-attendance fee will be issued to anyone who fails to attend a face-to-face or virtual delivered courses without notifying the KSCMP Business Team in advance. For attendees who pay the training administration charge (as above) the charge will be forfeited, instead of a non-attendance fee being issued. A non-attendance fee will still be issued for non-attendance by attendees that are exempt from the training administration charge.
• Small voluntary, community and not-for-profit organisations may be able to apply for an exemption, based on financial hardship. The criteria and application process provide further information.

Certification

Certificates will be accessible once the course has been completed/attended and the feedback form completed in the MeLearning portal. Certificates must be downloaded via your training account, as we do not send them directly.
