Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) training 13June

All sporting organisations endeavour to offer sport that is safe,
enjoyable and provides appropriate role models to the community. The
Member Protection Information Officer course is part of the
Harassment-Free Sport Strategy (an initiative of the Australian Sports
Commission) which assists organisations and agencies in the sport
industry to deal effectively with issues surrounding harassment,
discrimination, abuse and child protection in sport.
The Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) is the first point of
call in a club, state or national sporting organisation for any queries,
complaints or concerns around harassment, discrimination and child abuse
in sport. They provide confidential information, moral support and
options to help resolve the issue (MPIOs do not investigate or resolve
conflicts).
The Member Protection Information Officer course will increase
understanding of harassment, discrimination and child abuse in sport
while teaching practical skills that will assist anyone taking on the
role of MPIO. The course takes place on Thursday 13 June, from 9am -
1pm, at the Sport and Recreation Services Office.
There are currently a few vacancies for this course. If you are
