7 Minute Briefings

The SSCP have introduced 'seven minute briefings', designed to be delivered as a short briefing regarding a particular subject.

The briefings provide a mixture of new information such as learning from Serious Case Reviews or a reminder of basic information with challenge questions for teams to think about the application to practice within their teams.

Seven minute briefings are based on a technique borrowed from the FBI. It is based on research, which suggests that seven minutes is an ideal time span to concentrate and learn. Learning for seven minutes is manageable in most services, and learning is more memorable as it is simple and not clouded by other issues and pressures.

If you have suggestions for future briefings you would find helpful, please email your suggestions to the SSCP training coordinator email: sscptraining@salford.gov.uk

The briefings can be downloaded below; plain text versions of 7 Minute Briefings are also available.
