TARA Training Centre - Nurturing Excellence in Child Care
At TARA Training Centre, our mission is to uphold the highest standards of professionalism and expertise among every TARA associate, employee, teacher, and volunteer who interacts with children in need of care and protection. Established in 2017, the TARA Training Centre is dedicated to equipping individuals with the specialized skill set required to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable children. These training courses are designed for TARA social workers and other organisations involved in child protection. They focus on education, law, social worker techniques, legislation, the safety of children and their environment, etc. Workers that have been trained stay longer in TARA, which has a beneficial impact on the children.
