As required by the Malta Central Authority, a professional training to the prospective adoptive parents is offered. Through the training delivered by Adoption Opportunities Agency’s social workers, prospective adoptive parents are given the chance to focus and widen their knowledge regarding many issues, theories, and other interesting topics regarding adoption. The training also aims to provide a source of a supportive network between the prospective adoptive parents who are welcome to interact and share one’s own experiences, worries and hopefulness about their adoption journey.
