Training and Education

UPDATE FEBRUARY 10, 2026 - there is no course access right now as learning materials are being moved to a different platform. Karen Bong is asking if/when we can again access the course.

At the 8th International Family Integrated Care Conference (online, October 7, 2025) they let attendees know about this free online course.

From the website:

Support families through uncertain perinatal journeys with holistic care and communication strategies.

Explore perinatal palliative care and its role in managing uncertainty

Every year, thousands of families face the challenging reality of uncertain perinatal outcomes.

This training was mentioned in the December 12, 2025 Parent-Partner Network meeting as something that may be of interest to parent partners who deliver peer support to NICU families.

From the website:

The Trauma Training Initiative is a two-part training program designed to build foundational knowledge and practical skills for working with individuals and families affected by trauma and violence. Grounded in trauma and violence-informed principles, this training supports professionals in creating safe, compassionate, and responsive environments across diverse practice settings.

Participants will explore the core concepts of trauma and its impact on individuals and communities, while developing competencies to apply trauma and violence-informed and trauma-focused approaches in their daily work.

• Part 1: Trauma and Violence-Informed Care (TVIC) eLearning Series

• Part 2: Trauma-Focused (TF) Skills Workshop Series (available to internal learners only)

CPBF sponsors this virtual workshop every year in January. Here's the 2026 sessions' flyer for information purposes.
