ACSL Learning Platform

Learning opportunities for faith based communities, focusing on safeguarding professional development.

In line with our mission to help organisations protect children and adults at risk, we have sourced and developed a range of professional development resources and courses focusing on safeguarding.

Some of these are created by ACSL, and others are offered in partnership with leading safeguarding authorities (including the Australian Childhood Foundation and the Australian Human Rights Commission).

Registration is free, modules are quick, and many courses are free also.

Safeguarding Development Opportunities

Courses include microcredentials in safeguarding, short modules around safeguarding topics and general professional development.

ACSL modules available include an introduction to safeguarding, safeguarding adults at risk, safeguarding in a digital world and managing and mitigating safeguarding risks.

Resources available include webinar recordings about safeguarding topics and links to Australian and international safeguarding resources.

Discounts available for members of organisations that are ACSL paid subscribers.

Introduction to Safeguarding Program

Designed for anyone new to safeguarding within a Church context, this program is a series of short flexible online modules.

The six modules contained within this program take between 15 and 25 minutes each to complete. They provide learners with a better understanding of safeguarding in the Catholic Church and tools to help identify child abuse and adults at risk, including guidance for responding to disclosures.

Webinars

Live learning sessions with prominent thought leaders on areas of safeguarding interest and concern to enhance Continuous Professional Development (CPD).

Webinars are usually offered online monthly and require registration for attendance.

Each month ACSL hosts a different topical leader providing a safeguarding relevant presentation and question and answer session.

Discounts available for members of organisations that are ACSL paid subscribers.

Leaders and Leadership Teams Program

Offered regularly for leaders and leadership teams within the Catholic Church, this training has been written to meet the requirements of NCSS Standard 5.3.2.

This is offered as a hybrid training model – depending on your entity’s needs. This can be delivered as face to face or webinar sessions which are supplemented by online self-paced materials.

Discounts available for members of organisations that are ACSL paid subscribers.
