Certificate in community rehabilitation

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

The knowledge and skills covered in this qualification are aimed at Responsible Officers working at the current Probation Services Officer (PSO) grade. Responsible Officers may be employed by CRCs or by partner organisations. The knowledge unit, the emphasis on strong and engaging relationships and the enhanced nature of risk-informed practice represent the up-skilling of this group of staff and are positioned at Level 4. The remainder of the units are at Level 3. It is important to understand that qualification levels do not equate to pay bands in the sector. The qualification does not include optional specialist units although there are signposts to the learning and skills required by those working with specific groups, for example young offenders.

Course Information

The main objective of this qualification is to address the skills requirements and core tasks

required of a flexible and dynamic workforce involved in transforming rehabilitation.

Transforming rehabilitation is a reform programme which is changing the way offenders are

managed in the community. The programme aims to bring down reoffending rates while

continuing to protect the public. This is changing the way rehabilitation services are

provided and is reflected in a range of different operating models, including the formation of

Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs). The SFJ Awards Level 4 Certificate in

Community Rehabilitation addresses associated developments in practice relating to:

  • developing strong and engaging relationships to motivate crime-free lives
  • assessing, communicating and managing fluctuations in risk
  • work that is based in communities and neighbourhoods and alongside partners
