Inclusion Bridge has developed a 10-module Essential Mandatory KHDA approved Training Programme for all registered Learning Support Assistants (LSAs), Teaching Assistants (TAs), or Shadow Teachers.

These modules are aligned with the Inclusion Bridge candidate preparation pathway and, where relevant, supported by training resources available through The National College UK platform. The programme includes a combination of engaging webinars, easy-to-follow training videos and practical learning activities.

The training is designed to be clear, practical and accessible, allowing candidates to complete the modules at their own pace. The full mandatory training programme takes approximately 22 hours to complete and is worth over AED 6,000. However, through Inclusion Bridge’s access to The National College UK training platform, registered candidates can complete this programme as part of their AED 500 registration fee.
Candidates will have two months to complete their assigned Learning Journey Plan, download their certificates and build a professional training portfolio.

The 10 KHDA-approved mandatory training modules are:

⦿ Skills for Safeguarding and Child Protection in Schools
⦿ Skills for Professional Conduct and Safe Working Practice
⦿ Understanding Inclusive Education and Additional Needs
⦿ Supporting Students of Determination with Individual Needs
⦿ Practical Skills for Supporting Communication, Sensory Needs and Learning
⦿ Skills for Supporting Focus, Self-Regulation and Independence
⦿ Skills for Positive Behaviour Support and Classroom Inclusion
⦿ Role, Responsibilities and Professional Boundaries

⦿ Wellbeing, Resilience and Emotional Intelligence


This training is designed to strengthen your professional readiness before you are considered for introduction to parents or schools where suitable opportunities are available.

Session 1: Guidance on safeguarding, code of conduct, professional boundaries and role expectations.

Session 2: Preparation for parent and school interview questions, including support in presenting yourself professionally for future opportunities.

After completing the required training and coaching pathway, candidates will be considered for parent or school introductions and interviews when suitable opportunities arise. This will depend on your qualifications, experience, training completion, suitability for the role and the needs of parents, schools or other relevant parties.
