Course description
This course is designed not just for coaches, but any individual who interacts with adults in various settings in sport and physical activity: participants, colleagues, spectators, and parents or guardians.

Who is the course for?
Coaches need to adopt different approaches for responding to adult safeguarding concerns than those involving children and young people.
UK Coaching has teamed up with Ann Craft Trust, the UK’s lead agency for safeguarding adults, to create a brand-new and fully immersive learning experience. Coaches play a pivotal role in connecting with a network of people to create a safe and inclusive environment for all adults. This course will equip those who coach sport, physical activity, leisure, or fitness – at all levels – with the knowledge, confidence and understanding to recognise, respond and report a welfare or safeguarding concern.

What’s the value of this course?
This course is suitable for everyone who delivers coaching in clubs, community sport and physical activity, such as coaches, activators, sports administrators, front of house staff and volunteers. You will have the opportunity to ‘learn by doing’: testing and enhancing your decision-making skills in a virtual environment. This means that you can also see and understand the consequences of your decisions in a safe, pressure-free environment.
