Course Overview

Course ID

All organisations have a responsibility to safeguard both their staff and other stakeholders. It is vital not only to comply with legal responsibilities, but to also use safeguarding as a means of creating an ethos of safety within an organisation. This can lead to happier and more productive staff, and enhanced reputation and confidence from clients and customers. We would recommend this course to anyone who wants to ensure that they understand the benefits of best practice in safeguarding, and it is particularly useful for those who work with vulnerable groups such as refugees, children, the disabled and the elderly.

Learners start and complete our distance learning courses every day, all year, so there is no need to wait until term begins. The courses are designed to be ready when you are, so you can fit it into your schedule.

Study takes place in an online virtual learning environment (VLE) which allows convenient and flexible learning. We recommend spending 6-8 hours studying per week to ensure that you meet your assignment deadlines.
