Practitioners & Training
The professional side of Wild Minds
Everything on this part of the site is for the people who deliver the work: practitioners, AP providers and organisations. Here you will find the practice methodology, the records system and the training pathway, all built while running our own provision.
The practice methodology
The WILD Framework®
The way of working behind every Wild Minds placement: Safety, Connection and Change, a four-step practice sequence, the WILDER session model and progress evidenced across five strands.

A four-stage practitioner pathway from Foundation to Lead, plus assessor, supervisor and trainer designations. Practitioners are assessed on real work with young people.

The Framework sets the practice, the Portal holds the records and the Academy trains the staff. Providers can adopt one part or the whole system, and practitioners can train with us whether or not their organisation uses the Framework.
