Training

Working with Interface provides a good example of partnership working to drive forward a large scale, multi-agency training and development programme. Their values and approach underpinning their work reflected their commitment and drive to the programme. Interface shared the vision and values of the programme to improve outcomes and make a difference for children and families this was reflected through the delivery of the whole programme and the commitment and insight of the trainers.

Working with Interface has been a genuine pleasure. They have been central to the roll-out of trauma-informed practice and restorative approaches training within our organisation and have impressed us with their range of expertise, high quality delivery (online and face to face) and bespoke solutions. Having also used Interface for delivery of courses, facilitation of reflective practice for staff and creation of online learning content, we have found them to be responsive, flexible and much more than just a training provider! It’s been fantastic to work with an organisation which aligns with our own values-based approach.

I would like to thank you for four excellent days of training. I learned a lot and really appreciate how you listened to us and were able to tailor the training to our needs whilst still making sure that we covered everything that we needed to do. It was all extremely helpful but the group discussions and activities were brilliant. Particularly the group supervision exercise and also the TAF action planning activity. I found the reflective discussions really helpful but also appreciated how kind you were in checking in on us individually if we needed to talk.

This is the highlight of my career so far I am totally inspired by the trainer to do the best job I can possibly do for families, she is so passionate about making a difference to the lives of vulnerable children and families, I’m just sad it’s finished.

I have worked with Wendy and Interface since her days at DFES and later as the Founder of Interface. She has built considerable expertise in the key developments in Family Support over the last 20 years and with her partners has been able to offer us knowledge, experience, flexibility to meet our changing requirements as we have developed our services. We have valued her help developing our practice, management , systems and meeting our partnership workforce development needs most recently on Family Hubs, Management and Leadership and Trauma programmes.

Wendy and colleagues are responsive, excellent communicators with us, partners and staff. We have been really pleased with the outcomes. I would you use them again and recommend to others.

Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to undertake this course. It is hands down the most interesting and thought-provoking training I have ever experienced. The trainer was amazing and whilst I accept that as a non-professional I may well be getting more from this than others I could see everyone had lots to take away and reflect on.
Brilliant!

Thank you! The trainer was extremely knowledgeable, the course was really useful to me and I learnt a great deal that will be of use.

This was the best training I have attended in a long, long time!!

The Motivational Conversations course was inspirational as well as being highly empowering. My colleagues and I are using the skills taught to ensure that our communication with clients and the children have a greater impact as well as being sympathetic to their needs and perceptions. If you have any contact with Wendy please can you share my comments.

The standard of the training was outstanding. The trainer had a great way of delivery and it flowed easily. It was never too complicated, and it comforted me into accepting that I did know what I was doing!

Super training. Really made me think about my approach and the way with work with children and families. This should be mandatory training across the partnership. The trainer was fantastic at supporting us and really knowledgeable about the subject area. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the super session for senior leaders today on embedding Trauma Informed Practice and for your flexibility. You gave us some great information and sensitively challenged us about the next steps to help us embed this. Really looking forward to future sessions with you.

The s47 training provided for our Social Workers was rated as the best training that they had ever received.

Excellent training from knowledgeable trainers. The training day has really made me think about my practice. I am excited to put all new learning into practice and be much more aware of tools provided to assist families and also be much more aware of how I practice. Extremely useful, applicable and relevant.

Training with Jahsynth was brilliant. She kept us engaged and has excellent training skills making sure that we were all absorbing the information. I loved the fact she brought fidget toys as this made a huge difference when it comes to holding our attention as well. She was absolutely amazing and has been the BEST training which we have received so far from LBI. She was kind and caring as well when it came to sensitive topics she understood if any of us felt uncomfortable or needed a break. Honestly, I couldn’t praise her enough! I think we need to employ her 😃 - Thanks Jahsynth, you Superstar!!

We are absolutely delighted with both the training and your approach to working with us. We couldn't be happier. It is a large programme and you have been flexible and responsive and your trainers are high quality.
