Melonie Hall Achieves Senior Trainer Status – Now Delivering RRN & BILD Certified PMVA (Prevention and Management of Violence and Aggression) Training

We’re proud to announce that Melonie Hall, founder and lead trainer at Training in Partnership, has achieved her Senior Trainer qualification through TEACH Safety – enabling us to deliver industry-recognised PMVA (Prevention and Management of Violence and Aggression) Training, certified by the:

Restraint Reduction Network (RRN)
British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD)

This certification means our training meets national benchmarks for best practice in the reduction of restrictive practices across health, social care, and education.

What This Means for You

Training in Partnership can now provide:
– RRN-certified PMVA (Prevention and Management of Violence and Aggression) Training, recognised by CQC and Ofsted
– Evidence-based content rooted in Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) and trauma-informed care
– Courses led by a qualified Senior Trainer through TEACH Safety
– Certification under the BILD ACT Framework, ensuring compliance and quality assurance

Prevention First – Intervention When Necessary

Our training is designed to:
– Minimise the need for physical intervention
– Promote proactive, preventative approaches using Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
– Empower staff to de-escalate challenging situations with confidence and compassion

However, we also recognise that some situations may require physical interventions to maintain safety. Our training includes:
– Ethical and legally defensible techniques
– Clear guidance on when and how to intervene safely
– Reflection and learning processes to help reduce recurrence

Training Needs Assessment – Tailored to You

Before delivery, we carry out a Training Needs Assessment (TNA) with your organisation to ensure:
– Training is matched to your environment, risks, and workforce roles
– Interventions taught are proportionate and appropriate
– The course reflects your own behaviour support strategies and safeguarding policies

No two services are the same – and our training is never off-the-shelf.
