Imroc Training Prospectus 2026

Imroc is a registered charity offering training, consultancy, thought leadership and research. Our offer spans accredited and non-accredited training, coaching, facilitated reflective spaces and CPD opportunities.

Established in 2008, we began by co-producing a benchmarked methodology to help mental health organisations embed Recovery-focused practice. One of those benchmarks — transforming the workforce through peer support — led to our Peer Support (Mental Health) and Neurodiversity Programmes.

Our Trainers

All our trainers bring lived, life and learnt experience, and deliver in teams that offer a variety of relevant experience to each training cohort.

Our trainers complete relevant training to facilitate learning environments that are safe,  accessible, friendly and values led. This is no easy feat; our trainers are continually developing their personal and professional skills and progressing their own recovery journeys to create a positive learning environment.

Our trainers are supported by our leadership team who bring extensive experience of peer support, education, and training. This team ensures there are continual opportunities for support, reflection and ongoing learning.

Our Training Approach

At the heart of Imroc training is co-production, ensuring that courses are developed and delivered in collaboration with individuals who have lived experience of accessing services, providing and receiving Peer Support, and working within NHS and voluntary sector organisations.

While grounded in robust theoretical frameworks, our training prioritises practical application, encouraging participants to consider how they can integrate their learning into real-world settings. This approach fosters meaningful change, enhancing services and support systems.

By focusing on trauma-informed and neuro-inclusive practices, our training has a lasting impact. Hope, control, and opportunity are central to everything we do, ensuring that participants not only gain knowledge but also feel inspired and empowered to drive positive change in their work and lives.

The Training Experience

Imroc training is designed to be inclusive, providing a welcoming and accessible learning environment for all participants, valuing the experiential wisdom each person brings. 

Recognising the importance of active participation, Imroc training sessions are interactive and engaging, incorporating a variety of teaching methods to cater to different learning styles. This includes group discussions, practical exercises, case studies, and opportunities for reflection. Participants are not passive recipients of information but are actively involved in their learning and unlearning process.

We have different support systems in place for participants depending on the length of and requirements of the course.

All courses listed here are online. To discuss face-to-face course delivery, please get in touch. Online courses require a stable internet connection and access to Zoom.

  • “This is without doubt the best training course on any subject I have ever attended - thank you so much to the presenters and my fellow trainees. Some great peer support workers are going to emerge from this group.”

    – Autism peer support trainee

  • “I thoroughly enjoyed the course, and definitely bene- fitted from the teams’ efforts. I appreciated the fact that the course was held online as it allowed me to work with a far more diverse group than is likely to have been possible had the training been held in person. I would thoroughly recommend the course to anyone either with an inter- est in becoming a PSW, but also to those who were look- ing to build PSW support into the services they offer.”

    – Mental Health peer support trainee

  • “I’m not sure there are the words to describe, or words that are strong enough. This has been emotional for me in the best way possible. I have reframed my entire life from this course. You guys have helped me see my value, I’m really grateful for that.”

    – Autism peer support trainee

  • “The whole course gave peer support the sense of gravity, for me really validated doing something different to the traditional approach. Because of this course I'm embracing and enjoying my work more and being more bold in my ideas and suggestions.”
