The PSD Scotland MAP Team runs a ‘Training for Trainers’ model to ensure MAP Training is available across Scotland.  

We train, co-facilitate, observe and coach local MAP Practitioners to become MAP Trainers so they can deliver MAP workshops across their local area (e.g., an NHS Board, Local Authority or Integration Joint Boards).

Through all steps in the process, Trainers are supported to ensure they have the competence and confidence to deliver MAP Workshops to a high standard while maintaining flexibility and adding their own training style. 

On completion of the Training for Trainers process, you will become a member of our welcoming and supportive network of MAP Trainers, providing access to resources, network update sessions and more.
