CPD Training
DAfree CPD Courses
DAfree’s CPD Courses are accredited with The CPD Group.
CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development
which is the ongoing process of learning that professionals undertake to improve their skills, knowledge, and abilities.
It's a way to track and document the formal and informal learning that occurs throughout a career, ensuring a professional remains current and effective in their field.
DAfree learning meets CPD standards and we are fully equipped to deliver CPD learning. We deliver our CPD-accredited training in person at our Central London facilities, at your organisation or online via Skool.
Our Programmes
DAfree’s CPD programme provides the training you need to create
safer relationships, safer organisations, and safer communities.
This means that DAfree's CPD courses meet industry standards and the accreditation services we deliver to learners are qualitative, credible, resourceful, and accredited.
Whether you're refreshing your safeguarding knowledge, developing specialist expertise, or improving your organisation’s response,
our mission is to make domestic abuse awareness, prevention, and trauma-informed practice accessible to everyone,
not just those already working in the field.

We are proud to confirm that
DAfree is officially listed on The CPD Register,

safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, and digital abuse.
Accreditation through The CPD Register guarantees compliance with CPD standards, ethical delivery, and evidence-based learning across all sectors.
At the end of each course, participants receive the
