Do I have to attend Safeguarding Training offered by the FAW, or is other safeguarding training acceptable?

It is preferred that all safeguarding officers complete the FAW Safeguarding award as this is football specific, however we do accept the NSPCC Time to Listen Course. If you have attended this course, please upload the certificate to your COMET profile and email FAW safeguarding to confirm you have done so. If you feel you have a significant amount of training through your job, please provide the FAW Safeguarding Team with copies of your Safeguarding Training or proof of occupation to enable us to confirm if this is sufficient.
