Our Level 2 Safeguarding course is perfect for anyone who works with children or vulnerable adults in sport. This includes coaches, officials, volunteers, freelance staff, and others who work, volunteer and support sports clubs and camps. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility, and this training ensures your entire team knows what to look out for, how to protect themselves, and what steps to take if they have any concerns.
If you're part of your club's lead safeguarding team, or taking on the role of Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) or Nominated Person, you should consider our Level 3 Safeguarding course for advanced training.

Who Is This Course Designed For?


What's Covered On This Course?
Our Safeguarding of Children Level 2 (VTQ) course, also known as 'Child Protection training', is essential for anyone working with children and young people in the sports industry. This comprehensive training covers a wide variety of critical topics, including different types of abuse, how to recognise signs of a problem, and precisely what steps to take if you have a concern. We'll also explore practical measures you should implement to help protect yourself whilst working with children.
For those who work with adults, we also offer a Safeguarding of Vulnerable Adults Level 2 (VTQ) course. If you require both qualifications, we can dual certify you for a small additional fee, streamlining your essential safeguarding training.


Need Something
A Bit Different?
We pride ourselves on flexibility to meet your club's safeguarding needs! The details here cover our Level 2 Safeguarding of Children and Level 2 Safeguarding of Vulnerable Adults courses, but if you need something a bit different, just ask!
Dual Certification for Comprehensive Coverage
Work with both children and vulnerable adults in sport? We can dual certify you, covering both Level 2 courses for just an additional £10 per person. This streamlines your training and ensures comprehensive understanding across all your responsibilities.
Level 3 Safeguarding for Lead Roles
If you're taking on the role of Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) or Nominated Person at your club, you'll likely need the Level 3 Safeguarding qualification. This one-day course provides advanced training, though we can split it over several sessions if that works better for you. It can be run remotely via live webinar or in person. Just drop us a note for more details on this essential training for your lead safeguarding team!
