Welcome to Studio III Training Systems

Studio 3 is a specialist research and training organisation which was founded in 1990. The overall aim of the organisation is to provide high quality training in the specialist field of managing aggressive and challenging behaviour. Over 150,000 people in the UK and Europe have received our training. We consider ourselves to be market leaders in challenging behaviour training for a variety of care settings.
Studio 3 Training Systems provides a non aversive approach to challenging behaviour. We offer criterion-based training, working with staff to develop specific skills to meet the particular needs of the service user. It is essential that the background to the service user's problems is understood by all staff and that this understanding is used to define the direction in which these problems may be addressed. Studio 3 is not a provider of generic physical intervention strategies as the majority of our work is designed to promote the management of challenging behaviour in a totally non-violent, gentle and dignified way by the use of "low-arousal" techniques and gentle physical skills.
Training staff to manage crises is a major service industry in the UK and Europe. Studio 3 Training Systems has been at the leading edge of such training for over a decade.
The director of Studio 3 is Dr Andrew McDonnell BSc MSc PhD, who is a consultant clinical psychologist with numerous research publications in this field. Profiles of our other trainers The Studio 3 approach is typified by a major emphasis on applied research. This has led to an evidence based training system. A review of staff training in physical interventions (Allen 2000) reported that Studio 3 Training Systems accounted for 46% of all learning disabilities studies.
