This online course has now replaced the booklet and check sheet method of re-certification.
It is best practice to refresh your Safeguarding Children learning every three years and it is now an FA requirement that Licensed Coaches recertify at three yearly intervals.
This course, costing £13.95, is easy to access by entering your FAN and FA password here and you can complete it in your own time wherever you can access the internet. It will help ensure your knowledge and practice is up to date.
The course gives practical examples of situations that occur in football and gives advice on how to deal with them, from whether you can use photographs of children on your website to dealing with bullying or suspected child abuse. There is a recap of the face to face Safeguarding course and new information, like changes in the law and how to protect children on the internet.
Please note that this facility is not available to those of you who have already re-certificated via the booklet and checksheet method. If you fall into this category you will need to attend an up-dated 3- hour Workshop conducted by an FA Tutor bookable here If you have any questions this course, please contact the County Welfare Officer, Ian Hibbard, Ian.Hibbard@wiltshirefa.com Tel: 01225 868309 or 07733 104090.
