Description

This is more than just a course. It provides students with fundamental information relating to safeguarding. It also provides free valuable model safeguarding templates to use.


Safeguarding awareness is essential for anyone working in an industry where their role involves training, instructing, teaching or supporting another individual or group.


Whether you are a dance teacher, martial arts instructor, personal trainer, massage therapist or counsellor, these types of roles often come with a degree of responsibility and a great deal of trust. As a professional, you have a duty of care to uphold the safeguarding principles in your line of work.


As someone who has advised in health-related regulation and legislation for 15 years, and someone who spends their time in the dance studio and gym, I am aware that there are many great professionals out there, who are excellent teachers and instructors, but they are oblivious to the fact they need to have an awareness of safeguarding.  The aim of this course is to raise that awareness.


In around 1 hour 15 minutes, this course simplifies a large and complex area. It provides you with helpful knowledge and information about safeguarding, and baseline templates for use in your business.

  1. Introduction
