Child Protection in Sport Certificate

Child Protection in Sport Certificate Course

Across the UK, nearly 87% of all children have played at least one sport in the last 12 months. This gives those who work and volunteer in the sporting industry a lot of contact and interaction with children. As a result of this extended contact and their position as an authority or trustworthy figure, these individuals have certain child protection responsibilities. Being aware of how to keep children safe when engaged in sports, both from dangers at home and risks from other children, is a key part of fulfilling these responsibilities. This course goes into detail regarding child protection in sport. We begin by giving you an introduction to the topic, including a discussion on the numerous benefits seen by children who are engaged in sport. Next, we talk about the unique risks that face children today, including radicalisation. The course also talks about the signs of child abuse, so that you can keep an eye on the children in your care. Finally, we talk about the administrative steps that all organisations should take to keep children safe.

You Will Learn:

  • What steps the adults in a child’s life can take to keep the child safe
  • Which groups are most vulnerable to abuse, radicalisation and bullying
  • What the reporting process is
  • The importance of taking support training
  • Which pieces of legislative guidance you should know

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • Understanding more about how to keep the children in your care safe from abuse and harm
  • Learning how to create an atmosphere of acceptance and understanding
  • Understanding more about the modern day risks faced by children
  • Feeling confident about how to respond if a child confides in you about abuse or bullying
  • Learning the importance of following high child protection safety standards, even if it is not required for your organisation

This course was very easy to follow. Any assistance needed was quickly and professionally sorted.
The modules were great. I am a complete novice in this area of studying but was able to follow each module at my own pace and review.
Thoroughly recommend this to any seeking employment in this area. You get a recognised certificate at the end!

There is an exam at the end which was quite hard but it ensures you have read each module carefully ,so you fully understand.

I passed and can now apply for this type of work with confidence!!
In one word 'Fantastic!'

An enjoyable and informative course, with clear, digestible amounts of information. The worksheets help with understanding and remembering everything, and the whole course is well presented and easy to follow.

Being an online course it allowed me to work at my own pace, and with simple instructions to navigate through the modules, back tracking and repeating ones if I felt I needed too. I was also able to download and print off documents of information for my own files, so if I need to refer back to them I can.

I’d rate it as 10/10, and am looking at the next Level already!

Natasha Davy

This course is really comprehensive - it covers so many topics and themes. I really thought that the way the course is set out is very easy to use. You have the option to print out the course work or work online and the end of module worksheets are great for ensuring that you understand everything by filling in the blanks, answering questions about the topic and so on, you can even revisit modules.
I have only needed to contact support once but the reply was quick and concise.
I am really enjoying the course and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone thinking of or already working in the Office Management field.

I have just complete the nail technician diploma award and delivered professional manicures and nail extensions to my friends and family who are very pleased with their treatments! The course was easy to follow and fun to do!

Fiona Baker

WOW, I really learned so much more than I thought I would, this is an amazing course with useful insights and guidance. It was really well laid out, user friendly and a joy to participate in, even if you don’t want to start a business.

Any animal lover or owner would benefit from taking this course, as it covers so many aspects, from simple ways to handle a variety of different types of pets, grooming feeding and first aid as well.

It’s absolutely brilliant, I feel that I am now ready and prepared to start on my new journey. Thank you!

Loraine Simpson

I love the course very straight forward. Would love to know if there are any more courses available like this for advancement. Everything is clearly explained and if you get in trouble there is a helpline you can call. There should be more courses like this available online to benefit those people that want to go to work in their chosen field but are unable to pay for a program at college or else where. Well done and thank you for allowing me to pursue my interest and hopefully a career at the end of my studying.
