Trauma can shape how people think, feel, and behave, often in ways that aren’t visible at first glance. The new Attachment Trauma (A.C.E.S.) Trauma-Informed Care training from Specialised Training UK Limited has been developed to help professionals recognise the signs of trauma and provide support that fosters recovery and resilience.
What the A.C.E.S. course covers
This awareness-level training explores how Adverse Childhood Experiences (A.C.E.S.) can impact development, emotional wellbeing, and relationships throughout life. Delegates will learn how early trauma can manifest as challenging behaviour, withdrawal, or difficulties in communication and trust. The course introduces practical, trauma-informed approaches that can be used to create safer, more empathetic, and supportive environments for individuals affected by trauma.
According to the NHS, around one in three adults in the UK has experienced at least one form of childhood trauma, such as abuse, neglect, or household adversity — highlighting just how widespread the need for trauma-informed practice really is.
Who should attend an Attachment Trauma Training Course?
This course is ideal for anyone working with or supporting children, young people, or adults who may be living with the effects of past trauma. It is particularly relevant to:
- Teachers, teaching assistants and SEN staff
- Residential care and foster carers
- Youth workers and early years practitioners
- Support workers and healthcare professionals
- Social workers and family support teams
By understanding the link between past experiences and current behaviour, professionals can respond with empathy, patience and strategies that reduce escalation and promote trust.
Why take this course?
Trauma-informed care helps to prevent re-traumatisation and improve outcomes across education, health and social care settings. Delegates completing this training will leave with greater confidence to recognise triggers, adapt communication styles, and respond in ways that promote safety and emotional wellbeing.
For those looking to expand their skillset further, this course pairs well with:

“Tony from Specialised Training UK LTD is so good at training. He was calm and composed and made sure we understood the training and made room for us to ask questions. This was a great session, and I am much more comfortable than I was when the training began. Thank you, Tony.”
