Course description

Part 3 of 3: preparing your fostering service for Cultural Compass Mark™ accreditation

In this final part, we look at principles eleven to fifteen: how your fostering service works with partners, builds cultural understanding, tackles racism, checks its own policies and handles complaints. Then we look at your next steps towards accreditation.

This interactive e-learning course has 5 short modules:

• Module 1: Partnerships and Collaborations
• Module 2: Promotion of Cultural Understanding
• Module 3: Strategies and Anti-Racist Practices
• Module 4: Reviewing Anti-Racism Compliance
