How to: Run group training for any course level

Present Safe Ministry Check training to a group, then mark attendees as complete and record their screening.

Summary: You can run Safe Ministry Check training as a group by presenting the course from an admin's trainee account (or a dummy trainee account). Afterwards, an administrator marks attendees as complete and records their screening details.

Tip: Course scripts and course questions are available for each training level, which can help with accessibility. In your admin portal dashboard, scroll to Resources to help manage your organisation and open Policies and Courses.

Before the session

  1. Set the trainee type of the person running the training to the course level the group will complete (e.g. Volunteer/Leader). In their profile, go to Details > Trainee Type and choose the level.

  2. Set every attendee's trainee type to the same level.

  3. Ask attendees to bring their screening details (e.g. referees) so they can be added to their profile later.

On the day

The presenter logs in to their trainee account (or a dummy trainee account) and displays the course from My Safe Training. There are two ways to run it:

  • Follow along on devices: attendees log in to their own training profile and follow along on their personal devices (videos muted), answering training questions and completing screening as they go.

  • Watch together: play the videos to the group, then mark attendees as complete manually (see below). Attendees complete their screening in their trainee portal under My Safe Ministry Checks, or you collect their details and add them after the session.

Screening covers:

  • My Code of Conduct

  • My Declarations

  • My Character Referees

  • My Working with Children Check

Mark attendees as having completed training

  1. Log in to your administration portal.

  2. Go to Trainees > Trainee List.

  3. Open the profile of each person who attended.

  4. Under Course Progress, select Update.

  5. Choose Group Safe Ministry Check training as the training method.

  6. Select the date the training was completed and click Submit.
