Continuing professional development is crucial for professionals within child protection and adult safeguarding, as it informs and enhances the way you work with children and vulnerable adults. Keeping up to date with how research translates into practice, does not only develop your skills, but it increases your confidence and safety as a practitioner.
At the AoCPP, we are committed to offering the highest quality CPD opportunities that are open to both members and non-members.
We are always open for suggestions on what you need from our CPD offering, as well as being able to design bespoke packages for individual organisations. To talk to us about your CPD needs contact us.

Child Abuse Review is an interprofessional journal for research, practice and policy in child maltreatment. The journal is a forum for all professionals working in the field of child protection, providing access to the latest research findings, practice developments, training initiatives and policy issues. While publishing research from leading international researchers, Child Abuse Review maintains a practice-orientated focus, actively promoting practice-relevant research and facilitating the use of research findings to enhance good practice and influence policy.

In addition to your continuing professional development we also recognise the challenges of working in this field and the value of being able to seek peer support as and when you need it. That’s why we offer a range of networking opportunities to those working in child protection and adult safeguarding.
Through various special interest groups, conferences and collaboration opportunities, such as Lunch and Learn sessions, we are able to offer an exchange of information, ideas and best practice for anyone working in child protection and adult safeguarding.
