The presentation and trainer’s notes set out to complement training produced by the Home Office and the department’s further and higher education Prevent regional coordinators.

Training participants will gain an understanding of:

  • the scope and impact of the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015
  • the nature of the terrorist threat facing the UK and the process of radicalisation
  • the difference between holding views that might be considered extreme and their expression in a way that risks drawing people into terrorism
  • the nature of the Prevent duty, as set out in the Prevent duty guidance for higher education institutions in England and Wales
  • the Channel process
  • the monitoring arrangements to ensure institutional compliance
