Common Questions

  • What happens when I qualify as a trainer?

    When a participant passes the Timian train-the-trainer course and registers as an associate trainer with BILD ACT, they’re entitled to deliver the positive behaviour management courses within their own organisations. T

    They will also be given access to our Timian Resource Centre, which consists of all of our training videos, PowerPoints and administrative paperwork for delivering courses.

  • What is an affiliate?

    Due to the nature of the BILD Act Certification, any organisations who work with us to develop positive behaviour management trainers will be required to have Senior Trainers  listed as Timian Learning and Development trainers. 

    Any organisation delivering our training in-house will be required to sign up as an Affiliate organisation and their trainers will need to be registered as Associate Trainers. All affiliates are listed on the BILD Act website

    This satisfies the BILD Act Certification scheme, and also ensures that CQC/NHS inspectors are clear on who is allowed to deliver certified training.

  • Do you teach restraint techniques?

    In line with our BILD Act Certification and approval from the Restraint Reduction Network, we do deliver courses which include physical restraint techniques:

    • Communication as Behaviour
    • Individual Response Strategies
    • Reducing Restrictive Interventions
    • Ethics, Law and Policy
  • Is this course a Pass/Fail Course?

    The short answer is Yes. We expect that any course delivering this kind of training should have criteria for measuring people’s ability to put the training into practice. We also have to ensure that we follow our BILD Act Certification guidance.

  • Will I need a refresher?

    Our BILD Act certification requires us to ensure that all our certified courses are refreshed annually.

  • Is this course BILD Act certified?

    This positive behaviour management train-the-trainer course allows you to deliver training Certified by BILD ACT following the RRN Standards. Our certification certificate can be found here.

  • What is the maximum number of participants on the course?

    Our courses are structured to a maximum number of 12 participants. This is also in line with current guidance laid out by the Restraint Reduction Network and BILD Act.

  • How does our training map to PMVA

    PMVA (Prevention and Management of Violence and Aggression) is a term that was commonly used in the health sectors from the 1980’s onwards. There are also a number of organisations who have PMVA in their title. The content of each PMVA course for each organisation delivering it, will be different, but, if it is BILD ACT Certified and RRN Approved, then it should uphold the key components. If your organisation requires PMVA training, we cover the content required and more.

  • Do you train staff requiring clinical holding or require restraint for eating disorders

    Yes. These course are BILD Act Certified and RRN Approved and listed on the BILD Act website. These course are delivered as bespoke courses to your organisation and are not booked as stand alone courses. If you would like to book training in either of these areas, please let us know by contacting info@timian.co.uk
