Hands-on Training on the E-version of Decision Trees from the Guide for Mandated Reporters provided by the Government

For the implementation of the Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse Ordinance (the Ordinance) (Cap. 650), the Government has promulgated the Guide for Mandated Reporters (the Guide) in late-July this year, providing mandated reporters with reference to assist them in mastering child protection principles and identifying suspected serious child abuse cases specified by the law.  This guide can be accessed at the following link: https://www.childprotectiontraining.hk/resource-corner.

Large-scale briefings are organised in September and October for the three sectors to introduce the content and use of the Guide to mandated reporters, particularly, demonstrating the application of decision trees and supplementary analytical frameworks with illustration of sample case scenarios to explain related information.

To help mandated reporters gain a better understanding on the use of decision trees, hands-on training designated for the three sectors are offered by the Social Welfare Department from early October to early December, enabling the mandated reporters to practise and trial the E-version of Decision Trees or apply it in their daily work.  The training schedule is set out as follows –

(Remarks: Please note that, during the trial period, it will not be possible to log in to the “Reporting Platform – Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse”.  The above password is exclusively for the purpose of this hands-on training.  After the implementation of the Ordinance, accessing the E-version of Decision Trees will not require password authentication.)

All mandated reporters are welcome to join this hands-on training.  Please share the above link and password to relevant mandated reporters.  The password is sector specific and mandated reporters of healthcare sector may freely access the E-version of Decision Trees within the designated trial period.  Please note that if too many users access to the system simultaneously, it may cause temporary slowness.  We kindly ask for your patience should this happen.
