Executive Summary:

Personality Disorder causes distress both to the individual concerned and those around them, yet is so poorly understood even by professionals that the term 'Personality Disorder' is sometimes used as little more than a term of abuse for patients who have consistently frustrated those who are trying to help them.

The ADDRESS® Course is designed to provide delegates with (a) a proper understanding of personality disorder and (b) professional and effective ways of responding to the most difficult behaviours that people with personality disorder produce, and (c) a clear and systematic sequence of steps to consistently deliver successful treatment interventions.

Who should attend:

All professionals who work with people diagnosed as 'personality disordered', including 'borderline personality disorder' whether in community, inpatient or secure settings.

Course Aims:

First Aid:

Understanding and treatment interventions:

What this course will do for you:

What you receive as a result of attending the training:

You will be registered as having attended the course, thereby gaining APT's Level 1 accreditation, and receive a certificate to this effect. The accreditation gives you access to online resources associated with the course and access to the online exam if you wish to uprate your APT accreditation to Level 2.

Your registration lasts indefinitely, whilst your accreditation lasts for 3 years from the date of completion and is renewable.

Your accreditation is given value by the fact of over 150,000 people having attended APT training. See APT accreditation for full details.

Written Feedback

Reviews.

APT prides itself on the feedback we receive about our courses. Below are just some of the great comments The ADDRESS® Course has received.

"Before the course my thoughts were that after working for 20 years, with patients who had PD, "what will I learn that I don't already know?" The answer is "A LOT". The course has been very helpful and the teaching style that the tutor has is brilliant. Very engaging, well-paced and very well presented."

"Extremely enjoyable and informative course ... I would highly recommend this course for anyone working within mental health."
