Abstract
Staff with varying backgrounds and educational qualifications can be effectively trained to implement procedures in line with evidence-based practice (EBP) (Allen and Tynan 2000, Dench 2005, Grey and Hastings 2005). Behaviour Skills Training (BST) is a competency-based training model, used to effectively educate a broad selection of professionals, including frontline staff, in a range of work-related skills (Maffei-Almodovar and Sturmey 2018). However, BST has yet to be evaluated in a large group-based experiment.
