  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of the key terms, concepts, and legislation related to coercive controlling behaviour, including the provisions of the Domestic Abuse Act 2021.
  • Recognise and describe the behaviours that constitute coercive control, including how these behaviours manifest in both intimate and family relationships.
  • Understand the connection between coercive control and risk, particularly in the context of post-separation abuse, and how to assess and respond to these risks effectively.
