Description

As a teacher or youth worker, you see close up how deeply gaming and the digital world are shaping young people’s lives. For many, it's a positive experience - fostering creativity, problem-solving and social connection. But it also brings evolving risks that often exist out of adult sight.

Introduction

Through engaging, evidence-based training, you’ll develop a deep understanding of the risks associated with gaming and gambling, confidence in spotting early warning signs, and practical strategies for supporting young people.

They’ll explore the evolving digital landscape together, ensuring you can identify risks and access support when needed.

What You'll Learn

• How young people encounter gaming and gambling in their daily lives
• The role of advertising, social media, and evolving gaming mechanics
• Gaming, gambling, and their impact on mental health and wellbeing
• The blurred lines between gaming and gambling
• Understanding in-game purchases, microtransactions and virtual currencies
• Spotting the changes in behaviour that may signal harm
• Supporting young people through effective conversations
• Signposting and connecting young people with appropriate support
