These resources will be especially relevant for Learning and Development staff. They relate to a wide range of learning material, including Powerpoint presentations, e-learning, and reflective exercises.
This is an ASPire webinar from February 2026. It launches the National Adult Support and Protection Learning and Development Framework.
This practitioner's guide has been produced by Perth and Kinross Child Protection Committee in partnership with practitioners from NHS Tayside and Children and Families' Social Work. It aims to provide all practitioners working directly or indirectly with children, young people and their families in Perth and Kinross, with clear practice guidance on how to be professionally curious and use this approach in the course of their work.
This co-produced toolkit shares information, ideas and inspiration for anti-oppressive approaches to safeguarding adults experiencing homelessness. It explores how social justice movements can shape the support and services on offer. The resource invites practitioners to reflect on the role of solidarity, autonomy, power and accountability in their work.
This guide aims to support social workers and their managers to navigate chronologies. It provides an overview of the process applicable to a range of contexts (the resource is child- and family focused, however its principles are useful across Adult Support and Protection).
It explores why chronologies are helpful, offers practical tips on completing them and includes tools to promote reflection and analysis of the information gathered. Overall, it will enable social workers and managers to understand and apply chronologies for assessment, planning and review.
This learning material supports the development and delivery of reflective practice sessions on chronologies.
The session aims to support delegates to:
Included is a Powerpoint presentation, facilitation notes, and a chronology template.
This blog post illustrates how learning partners from the National Chronologies Group shared their experiences of improving chronology practice at a learning session. Partners were at different stages and had taken various approaches to using the tool to inform their work. The session is explained, including the icebreaker and group discussions.
This is a community of practice for members, sub-group members, and associate members of CPC Scotland and APC Conveners Scotland; and the Social Work Scotland ASP sub-group. It aims to provide a space for members to connect with each other, to exchange knowledge and share best practice around learning review processes, research, policy, and learning.

Following on from the Understanding Age report, an online session brought together Learning and Development (L&D) colleagues to understand how they disseminate the resource in their local areas. This report captures their thoughts and experiences, offering insights into the practices - and challenges - of embedding new knowledge within local areas.
This resource pack aims to raise awareness about embedding professional curiosity in practice. It can be used in team meetings, as part of group/individual supervision, or for individual professional development.
It includes several practical tips and practice scenarios. There is an accompanying video explaining key concepts.
This presentation, and accompanying defensible-decision making framework, form the basis of a one-day training session.
