8th – 12th March 2021 – BTEC Level 3 Restraint Instructor Award Course –

23rd, 24th and 25th March 2021 – Combined NFPS Restraint & Handcuff & SoftCuff Instructor Refresher Course
This year we have combined the Restraint Trainer Refresher with a Handcuff Trainer Refresher so if you are already a qualified Handcuff Trainer with us then both of your refreshers will be run on one day.
This will save you time and money (because there is no additional charge for the additional handcuff refresher) and because the two skills complement each other it seems like the sensible thing to do.
If you are not a BTEC Level 3 Handcuff Trainer and are not intending to be that’s not a problem. This day will give you an insight into how handcuffs can be used in restraint situations so it will act as great CPD (Continual Professional Development) for you in broadening your knowledge and competence with regards to the wider application of restraint equipment.
Also, if you wanted to take the BTEC Level 3 Award in The Use of Restraint Equipment and become a properly qualified Level 3 Handcuff Trainer then there is that option too that will be made available to you once you book on.
The cost of the refresher does include your lunch on the course but does not include accommodation for the night before the course or breakfast on the day of the course. If you do require a room for the night before the course this can be added as an additional option in the shopping cart.

23rd, 24th and 25th March 2021 – Handcuff & SoftCuff Instructor Refresher Course
If you are just looking to refresh your Handcuff Trainer Accreditation with us then there is that option too as opposed to doing the combined Restraint & Handcuff Refresher Course.
The cost of the refresher does include your lunch on the course but does not include accommodation for the night before the course or breakfast on the day of the course. If you do require a room for the night before the course this can be added as an additional option in the shopping cart.

23rd, 24th and 25th March 2021 – BTEC Level 3 Handcuff & Softcuff Instructor Award Course
Due to the current situation the demand for mechanical restraint is on the increase, primarily due to the need to avoid or reduce any prolonged manual physical intervention.
Therefore, there is an increasing demand for properly trained Handcuff & Softcuff Trainers.
As with all of our courses we provide lots of resource material for you to enable you to leave our trainer course and run your courses ‘straight out of the box’ so to speak.
