SafeSport’s online training course is a necessary educational tool for prevention of abuse in sport. Education and awareness are the most critical components to creating safe and respectful sport environments. The SafeSport Trained course covers the following topics in-depth:

·       Mandatory Reporting

·       Sexual Misconduct Awareness Education

·       Emotional and Physical Misconduct

Both the SafeSport Trained comprehensive course and the Parent Training helps you to recognize if an athlete is being abused, and most importantly you will learn how to prevent this from happening, or how to respond and help if the abuse has already happened. By taking this training, you are a part of the daily effort to make the well-being of the athlete the centerpiece of sport programs.

The SafeSport online training course is 90 minutes long, and costs $18 per person.
This cost provides individuals with technical support and a U.S. Center for SafeSport Trained certificate is issued at the end of the course. The cost also allows the parent course and athlete training resources available for free which you will have access to. The training will also be available with translations in Spanish and French. The abbreviated course for parents is available at no cost.
