Online Harms Training – The Social Switch Project

Who is the Online Harms Training for?

The Social Switch Project recognises the need to support professionals and parents/trusted adults in dealing with both harmful online behaviour and the real-life violence which can escalate as a result.

Our free Online Harms Training is offered both online and in-person to those closest to young people – professionals and parents/trusted adults.

What will the Online Harms Training cover?

The interactive training will cover a range of topics from over-usage to online grooming, sending nudes to sexting, inappropriate content to body image, online influencers to violence against women and girls. The training will equip you with the skills to: 

  • Build your understanding of young people’s online behaviour and how you can support them to become positive voices online.
  • Discuss the safeguarding risks associated with social media and how to appropriately respond. 
  • Support you to assess your own social media practices in relation to young people.  
  • Improve your understanding of the steps you can take to build resilience in young people dealing with potentially harmful content. 
  • Increase your capacity to support young people to be positive voices online.
