About the Course
Course Overview
Primary Care Positive Parenting Programme (Triple P) is the third of five levels of family intervention for parents with children aged up to 12 years. Primary Care Triple P may be delivered as a universal parenting support strategy, but it may also be implemented as an early intervention strategy for parents whose children currently have, or are at risk of developing, oppositional, disruptive, or aggressive behaviours. All five levels of intervention in the Triple P model aim to enhance parents' self-sufficiency in interacting with their children through the use of positive parenting practices. Triple P ultimately aims to support parents to promote their child's social, emotional communication, intellectual and behavioural development. This training course specifically addresses the implementation of Primary Care Triple P, which is a 4-session program delivered individually to families.
