You are required to have completed The FA Safeguarding Children Workshop (if taken before 31 December 2020) or the Safeguarding Children Course (after April 2021) before applying for this course.
It’s also mandatory for anyone taking on the role of Welfare Officer to have an accepted FA Criminal Record Check – so learners are advised to have, as a minimum, submitted their CRC application prior to attending this training.
How do I get an FA Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check?
