The safeguarding courses support participants in developing and maintaining the necessary values, beliefs, knowledge, and skills to safeguard and protect children, young people, and vulnerable adults.
E-Learning (online) Courses
These 4 Church of England safeguarding e-Learning (online independent self-guided) courses:
- Basic Awareness (previously C0)
- Foundation (previously C1)
- Safer Recruitment and People Management (previously S1 Safer Recruitment)
- Raising Awareness of Domestic Abuse (previously S3 Responding to Domestic Abuse)
are available via The Church of England National Safeguarding Team’s online Learning Portal (website https://safeguardingtraining.cofeportal.org/).
These are not virtual courses (e.g. Zoom) so you do not need to book a ticket and you do not need a device with a camera or microphone - But you do need to have an account for the Church of England National Safeguarding Team’s online Learning Portal (website). Then you can simply log-on whenever it’s convenient for you, read and/or listen to the slides and then select the answers to multiple choice questions.
We, the Chelmsford DST, do not provide individuals/parishes with log-in details, but we have made a step-by-step guide on how to create yourself an account for the Church of England National Safeguarding Team’s online Learning Portal (website):
