Book onto our Prevent Duty workshops

13 June 2019

All staff in student-facing roles are required to be trained on UCL’s procedures and policies surrounding the Prevent duty. Book onto an upcoming training session via HR’s booking system.

UCL Prevent

UCL has arranged for a Prevent duty workshop to be delivered by UCL’s designated Prevent Coordinator, Chris Rowell, at the Department for Education. 

To book onto an upcoming training session, please visit HR’s booking system (search for ‘Prevent workshop’).

Why is UCL delivering training on Prevent? 

Government guidance requires that universities have policies in place for events with external speakers, welfare and pastoral care, IT usage and deliver training to support staff. The Office for Students (OfS) monitors compliance around delivering the Prevent Duty. 

What is UCL’s approach to Prevent?

UCL’s approach to Prevent focuses on the welfare of our students and staff. One of our present tasks is to train staff on processes related to Prevent, such as safeguarding vulnerable individuals and procedures for events with external speakers.

If you have any queries about the Prevent Duty and UCL’s approach or training opportunities, please get in touch. More information can be found on Prevent at UCL
