The CECA training lasts 2 days and is held in London. The courses are held twice yearly, in Spring and Autumn. However, special training sessions can be held for teams on site if required, including those held outside the UK. Trainees are required to become familiar with definitions, rating thresholds and interview techniques for dealing with issues of reporting style and overcoming biases in recall. Training is through use of video-taped and transcribed interviews, reference to a rating manual and rating of case studies. Discussion is held throughout on analysis of the CECA and its adaptation to different samples and outcome variables. The training pack consists of the interview questions and rating schedules (printed copies can be ordered for those who are trained in the measure).

The training is designed for researchers and practitioners in clinical, forensic and children and family services. Additional consultancy can be provided after training for rating reliability, analysis and on research design.

One-day workshops are also available on CECA issues, including specific topics such as the identification of psychological abuse.
