Course: Bullying and Harassment

Objectives

By the end of this training participants will:

• understand the definitions of bullying and harassment
• be able to identify bullying and harassing behaviour and its impact
• be able to recognise the need to challenge and change such behaviours
• be skilled in supporting those exposed to bullying and harassment
• be confident to raise concerns about organisational bullying and harassment

Overview

Drama sketches will highlight a number of different behaviours to enable identification of bullying and harassment. The delegates will work through a sketch in which a challenge to bullying behaviour is made. The use of forum theatre allows the delegates to "control" the actors without having to do role-play.

Length

2.5 hours.

Medium

Interactive.

The session is delivered by a skilled facilitator and comprises topical drama sketches performed by professional actors. Participants are engaged in commenting on the presented scenarios and suggesting alternative outcomes that are subsequently enacted.

Target participants

Courses for frontline staff and management are available. Suitable for groups of up to 40 delegates.

Evaluation

To help the commissioning body assess/quantify the benefit and relevance of the course to delegates' roles within the organisation, all sessions are evaluated through the use of verbal feedback and written forms. Summarised findings are then provided.
