Course description
Learn important information about
helping people who are being bullied at their
places of work - for employees, human resource
managers, other managers, counsellors,
therapists, helping professionals, relatives,
advice workers, legal workers, etc.
Bullying is an endemic workplace
problem in certain professions including
teaching and nursing. It also occurs widely in
business and the public service. Blame is often
wrongly placed on the bullied individual instead
of the organisation or the management structure.
Recession or threat of recession increases the
prevalence of bullying. If not identified and
dealt with, the consequences can include
post-traumatic stress disorder.
If you are a qualified therapist
or health professional this course will lead to
the
Certificate of Professional
Development in Bullying Awareness - P.D. Cert.
(B.A.)
