Why I Matter for Organisations?


WHY I MATTER FOR SCHOOLS AND ORGANISATIONS? 
 

The I Matter Framework provides structured, practical online learning that supports development of insights and skills for relationship health, emotional resilience, and reflective practice across organisations.

Schools, health settings, community services, and workplaces can purchase licences according to our 6 level licensing structure .


What an I Matter Online Learning Licence Includes

Level 1: Resource use - posters and free online
Level 2: Online training and resource use for professionals and practitioners
Level 3: Workshops for non-professionals via certified Leads so as to introduce entry RH for non-professionals (no online access)
Level 4: Online learning for non-professionals for preparation for roles - structured study support - No-low concern (community)
Level 5: Online learning for non-professionals for targeted intervention - structured study support - mild-moderate concern (via GP)
Level 6: Online learning for non-professionals for targeted intervention - structured study support - moderate-high concern (Complex/CAMHS level)
Level 7: Training professionals and locality hub oversight

Level 4-5-6 are progressed together as more careful governance and multiagency preparation and conversation is required to manage access via a locality hub


What an I Matter Online Learning Licence Includes

Each licence provides:

  • Access to the I Matter online learning journey (Get Started and Fundamentals)

  • Structured modules with guided reflection

  • Downloadable worksheets and practical tools

  • 6 months individual access per adult (renewable if desired)

Licences are allocated per adult email account.

At Level 2 License, organisations can distribute online learning licences to:

  • Staff

  • Professional partners

    This allows learning to spread organically through your community.

    To progress microprojects with indviduals and families you will need Level 3 or 4-5-6



Simple, Scalable Model

We have simplified the pathway to reduce complexity and support scalability.

Step 1: Purchase Licences

Choose the number of licences required.
Bulk pricing applies for 10+ users.

Step 2: Distribute Access

Allocate accounts to staff - and assist access for families if you have Level 4-5-6 licensing

Step 3: Embed at Your Pace

Use the framework in a way that fits your context:

  • Independent learning

  • Staff CPD development

  • Team reflection sessions
  • Develop options for young people and families

Your organisation can get started with little friction, then progress at a pace that works for you


Recommended Organisational Roles

Organisations may choose to deepen implementation through trained staff, but this is optional.

Community Interaction Without Complexity

To encourage shared learning while avoiding unnecessary administrative burden:

  • Learners may access peer discussion boards

  • Leads have access to a professional reflection space

  • Safeguarding concerns remain the responsibility of the organisation in its own context

The I Matter programme is educational, not therapeutic.

This structure allows community interaction without creating high-risk dependency models or centralised oversight complexity.

Safeguarding & Boundaries at Level 3-5

  • Does not replace therapy, clinical services, or safeguarding procedures

  • Requires organisations to maintain their own safeguarding policies

Organisations remain responsible for how learning is integrated into their setting.

What people say about the training

At first I was very reluctant to take part in this training - I couldn't see the point.  However I love how accessible it is and how I can squeeze it into those spare moments in my very busy life.  I can't believe the changes that have happened, which I never thought would be possible.  Parent and professional


To be honest, I was a little offended when this training was offered to me.  I thought 'hey it's not me that's got the problem, its my daughter'.   However I have to be honest, it has really got me thinking.  I have made some real changes.  I react less and am learning so much about myself.  I am so grateful to have had this opportunity.   Parent offered training via GP and social prescriber


This course changed the way I see things and I am now moving forward differently as a partner, as a parent, as a business owner and as a counselling psychotherapist.  Professional

    “The Kendal Integrated Care Community has adopted the I Matter Framework as a foundation for our thinking about how to work together in our community to help those who are struggling. Professionals and non-professionals are learning together. It feels good.”

  • I Matter Training

    “The I Matter approach of considering the adults needs alongside those of the children is such a useful way to look at things and has turned the dynamics on its head for me. I have realised my stress levels are having a huge impact on all of us as a family and learning to change this is starting to make a difference.”

    “EVERY teacher and parent would benefit from this programme. Parent carers are a group of people I would like to get this to. This would be a fantastic opportunity to bring a very isolated group of people together to improve the situation they are in. ”

    Children and adults of all ages

  • I Matter Training

    “I am a HLTA but also a parent and foster carer. I work with primary aged children, have 3 teenagers, and foster toddlers! This programme has been so valuable for each and every relationship I encounter on a daily basis. ”

    “The first time I completed the questions I didn't really understand what they were all about. By the third time I really understood what was being asked. At first we were really stuck. However It has been exciting to see the progress.”

  • I Matter Training

    “The registration questionnaire really got me thinking. I realised how isolated I had let myself become and that this was not helping me or my child. I took action the next day and phoned a friend. I also made another follow-up appointment to speak with my GP. ”

    Parent

  • I Matter Training

    “This training has been so much more than I expected it to be. I have learned so many things that have changed my understanding of myself and of my child. I have worked with many services before this but this has really made the difference. Now I know why I Matter ”

face-new

Dr Cathy Betoin has been working with adults and young people and families with a wide range of needs and challenges for over 30 years in a wide range of settings. 

The I Matter Relationship Health Learning Journey was developed to response to the gap in services providing solid foundational training for professionals and for adults and young people and their parents and carers who were often in challenging situations without some basic understandings in place.  The goal is training that can enhance any role.

The I Matter Relationship Health Journey aims to provide this back to basics, practical way of talking important issues in a manner that can support improved working together in a shorter or a longer time frame.

The aim is to creating calmer, happier, thriving environments where relationships are valued and diversity is honoured and respected and benefits us all.    Together we can make a difference!
