FIFA Guardians Safeguarding Essentials SCORM package
Welcome to FIFA Guardians Safeguarding Essentials
This course is for Global Football Community Learners and is part of the FIFA Guardians Safeguarding in Football Award.
This course is an introduction to essential safeguarding knowledge for football and other sports. The course explains what safeguarding is, why it is important, and how you can help reduce safeguarding risks and respond appropriately to any safeguarding concerns.
It is divided into three 30-minute sessions for you to complete at your own pace. The course explains how safeguarding is everybody’s responsibility. It’s up to us!
It is important to know that completing this education programme will not guarantee footballing environments and activities to be 100% safe. Inappropriately designed programmes and poor operational management can put people, especially children and youth, at risk of harm. We hope that by taking this course, risk of harm can be identified and reduced and that everyone can participate in football in a safe and supportive environment, free from all forms of harassment and abuse.
