Education and Training Partnerships
Build workforce capability and help prevent birth-related trauma through education.
Education is central to Birth Trauma Australia’s prevention-focused mission. Our Education and Training Partnerships help healthcare professionals, organisations and future workforces build the knowledge and confidence needed to recognise, prevent and respond to birth-related trauma.
Through ThinkNatal™ and tailored education opportunities, we work with organisations to strengthen professional practice, improve care and support better outcomes for women+, infants, partners and families.
