Governance and leadership are the roots of an organisation. They determine an organisation's child safety priorities and practices and establish its safeguarding culture. This training is critical for organisations seeking to be or remain a Child Safe Organisation.
Executive staff can explore how safeguarding and child protection relate to their specific roles and responsibilities in accordance with child safety best practices and how to be a Child Safe Organisation with a safeguarding culture. Learners are also guided through legislation and guidance, such as recommendations from Aotearoa | New Zealand's Abuse in Care Royal Commission of Inquiry.
This easy-to-navigate, engaging and informative 1.5-hour course helps learners develop the understanding, knowledge, and skills necessary to ensure:
- The organisation can effectively implement and embed child safety best practices, fostering a safeguarding culture.
- Those at the highest level have effective oversight of child safety developments, achievements, concerns and outcomes.
- Those responsible and accountable for organisational child safety can be confident in the organisation, demonstrating and evidencing safeguarding and child protection practices that exceed legislative compliance.
