00:00:07.110 --> 00:00:13.219
I just wanted to respond to some of the
points that came out of the key findings

00:00:13.269 --> 00:00:17.479
that, that Matthew's covered with us and,
and actually to do a little bit of a

00:00:17.550 --> 00:00:20.820
reminder. I know you all-, because you
booked on the event today, you've all got

00:00:21.109 --> 00:00:23.820
Research in Practice accounts, so you can
access

00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.360
the information that's on the website. I
know some of you have got individual

00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:33.250
accounts and can access slightly different
things to our partners who have accounts

00:00:33.309 --> 00:00:37.820
through organisational membership, but
just to remember that there is a huge

00:00:37.940 --> 00:00:40.600
range of, of different resources on there,
covering a, a, a

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:47.550
really wide range of topics as well. So,
when Matthew was talking about, that CPD

00:00:47.789 --> 00:00:53.630
can be a really broad definition,
podcasts, recorded webinars,

00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:56.630
reading case law,

00:00:57.810 --> 00:01:02.670
accessing research summaries, keeping up
to, to date with what's happening

00:01:02.729 --> 00:01:07.280
nationally, across the sector, you can do
all of that through the resources on the

00:01:07.450 --> 00:01:13.179
website. So, please don't, as, as Matthew
said, think it has to be about attending

00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:19.309
webinars or training events or formal
learning, it can absolutely be about

00:01:20.140 --> 00:01:23.020
connecting with those different resources
that'll support you with all of the

00:01:23.019 --> 00:01:27.170
different ranges of tasks that you do,
dependent on your role. I think I just

00:01:27.189 --> 00:01:31.810
wanted to get just a quick reminder of
the-, of the, the massive range of

00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:36.750
different formats and that will meet your
different learning styles. And actually,

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.699
in terms of the time that you have
available for accessing information,

00:01:42.189 --> 00:01:47.400
whether that's to support direct work or
whether it is, indeed, for, sort of, a

00:01:47.489 --> 00:01:51.379
formal CPD activity, some of you will have
protected time. I know

00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:58.580
some of our partner organisations do have
so many hours a month, or so many days a

00:01:58.670 --> 00:02:04.739
month, that they can undertake CPD, some
of you might not. So, there is something

00:02:04.819 --> 00:02:09.459
there that, that hopefully will enable you
to, to actually connect with information

00:02:09.469 --> 00:02:14.340
and do some CPD, whatever time you have
available. And actually be able to access

00:02:14.489 --> 00:02:17.930
the information when you-, when you need
it, when it's going to be of benefit for

00:02:18.009 --> 00:02:20.019
you. So, when you have that

00:02:21.659 --> 00:02:23.870
case that you pick up, or that project
work

00:02:25.500 --> 00:02:29.769
that you have, or that learning
opportunity that you have to develop for

00:02:29.930 --> 00:02:33.759
others, if you have a practice development
role, there will be something on the site

00:02:33.789 --> 00:02:37.750
that can actually help you at that time
when you need it. So, whether it's a, a

00:02:38.469 --> 00:02:43.030
refresher of an area of complexity, or
something completely new that you need to

00:02:43.030 --> 00:02:46.810
know about. As I said, keeping up to date
with legislation, good practice and

00:02:46.810 --> 00:02:49.090
recommended approaches that change over
time,

00:02:50.229 --> 00:02:55.740
using research evidence, finding case law
to underpin your work around court work,

00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:01.889
maybe responding to complaints or-, just,
you know, that, that evidence informed

00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:06.550
decision making that is so important in
most of your day to day activity. The

00:03:06.550 --> 00:03:10.539
everyday decisions which, which you all
make as professionals, have a-, have a

00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:14.310
huge and far reaching impact for the
children and families and adults that,

00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:19.669
that you're working to support. And
actually, I think, picking up on Joe's

00:03:19.810 --> 00:03:25.050
comment, it's about a confidence thing and
social workers should own and value the

00:03:25.110 --> 00:03:29.340
brilliant work that they do, absolutely.
You owe it to yourselves and you owe it to

00:03:29.379 --> 00:03:32.070
those childrens and adults and, and, and
families,

00:03:33.830 --> 00:03:37.659
to, to make sure that your decisions are
evidence based and, and that you are

00:03:37.900 --> 00:03:38.879
confident

00:03:40.830 --> 00:03:45.620
with those decisions and, and that you're
on that firm ground, rather than shaky

00:03:45.689 --> 00:03:47.020
ground there. So,

00:03:48.490 --> 00:03:53.099
whatever your need for information is, or
what, whatever your learning need is or

00:03:53.169 --> 00:03:56.360
whatever CPD you're wanting to try and
undertake, there will be something there

00:03:56.610 --> 00:03:58.590
that is really helpful for you, I'm sure.

00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:04.589
Before we move onto questions, I just
wanted to remind you that, when you are

00:04:04.669 --> 00:04:11.050
using any of the resources on the site,
you can click the CPD icon, and I guess

00:04:11.060 --> 00:04:15.990
some of you may have used this. If you
have used this to record some CPD, do drop

00:04:16.030 --> 00:04:19.359
me a comment, let me know, stick your hand
up, whatever, give me a wave.

00:04:20.979 --> 00:04:25.480
So, you can create a list of CPD within
the Research in Practice website on your

00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:29.120
account. Thank you, Jackie. I can see
you've just popped your hand up, you,

00:04:29.180 --> 00:04:32.150
you've recorded some. So, when Matthew was
saying,

00:04:33.860 --> 00:04:38.150
you know, we used to keep notes in the
back of, of a notebook, I would've lost

00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:42.230
that notebook. So, come November, I would
never remembered what I'd looked at or if

00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:47.259
I wanted to upload my CPD quarterly, I
definitely would've lost the piece of

00:04:47.259 --> 00:04:52.019
paper that I'd written down my initial
reflections on. So, remember that you can

00:04:52.069 --> 00:04:53.379
do that through the site.

00:04:55.100 --> 00:05:01.329
This next slide here, just gives you a
quick-, a memoir of what that is. So,

00:05:01.930 --> 00:05:03.189
you'll find it on your

00:05:04.329 --> 00:05:07.769
personalised dashboard when you login,
there is a 'My CPD' area

00:05:08.779 --> 00:05:14.919
and then the box that's showing there,
that allows you to record some

00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:19.290
reflections, that comes up when you click
the CPD icon on the actual resource that

00:05:19.300 --> 00:05:24.040
you've accessed. But we have got some
guidance on the site and I'll drop some

00:05:24.100 --> 00:05:28.180
links into the chat in a moment. We've got
some guidance on the site that explains

00:05:28.209 --> 00:05:33.089
how you can do that and there is a short
video that explains how you can add things

00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:34.759
and how you can

00:05:36.189 --> 00:05:36.509
then

00:05:37.740 --> 00:05:42.120
download that, so that you can use it
within your Social Work England account.
