What is the Safeguarding Awareness for Parents and Carers course?

The FA is committed to safeguarding children in England. From ensuring best practice and recognising poor practice to understanding how to report concerns quickly and effectively, we believe that making football fun, enjoyable and safe is everyone’s responsibility.

The course is designed to help you understand safeguarding, address concerns parents and carers might have, and learn how to create a safe environment for young people.


Upon completion of the course, you’ll receive a certificate that will appear on your FAN account.
