Abstract
This chapter on staff selection and training reviews the literature on the qualities and competencies required for working with personality disordered offenders. It also discusses the complexity of working with personality disordered offenders who may have challenging behaviours. It then considers various staffing models and outlines why the direction of multi-agency, partnership working was chosen. It explores the needs of staff at all levels for clinical supervision and reflective practice, and the kinds of dilemmas they are likely to bring for discussion. Finally, the chapter examines the results of various evaluation studies of staff recruitment and training, and suggests possible future developments.
