      examples of boundary issues throughout the programme and there will be examples of best
      practice in relation to boundaries offered throughout the training. The programme is highly
      interactive with some group exercises and scenarios and is aimed at participants who wish
      to underpin and strengthen their existing knowledge around boundaries. Above all this
      programme is a practical application of relevant theory and practice in relation to
      boundaries.
