As part of Scotland Works for You, Volunteers Scotland Disclosure Services is offering Recruiting with Convictions training sessions from Thursday 14th July.
This training aims to provide participants the opportunity to address any concerns they have in recruiting a volunteer with an existing criminal record, and information on creating procedures for considering people with a criminal record, along with help to understand how stereotyping can impact a person’s behaviour.
The course aims to support people on:
- challenging their values and beliefs about people who have an offending background
- reassessing their views on recruiting individuals who have an offending background
- raising awareness of perceptions that exist about people with an offending background
- understanding how Disclosure Information can be used when assessing risk in recruitment
