Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) Training
MPIOs play an important role in supporting safe, inclusive and respectful sporting environments. They provide information and guidance to people who raise concerns or complaints, helping them understand their rights, responsibilities and available options.
MPIOs do not investigate complaints or make decisions.
Who should attend
This training is suitable for:
- Volunteers and committee members
- Coaches, officials and administrators
- Staff from sporting clubs and organisations.
Training overview
MPIO training consists of two mandatory parts, both of which must be completed to become an accredited MPIO:
- Part 1 – eLearning: completed online, in your own time
- Part 2 – Face‑to‑face workshop: an interactive session delivered in person
Training is free and supported by ongoing networking opportunities.
