DEGREE PROGRAM

I. Diploma in Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults
The Diploma course is a 17-week intensive program for those who share in the mission of promoting a culture of safety in our communities, ministries, and apostolic missions.  The Diploma program is an authorized local implementation of the Pontifical Gregorian University’s Diploma in Safeguarding.

This is open to all individuals who wish to understand the mission in safeguarding, equip themselves with theoretical knowledge and technical skills, and develop their ability to meaningfully respond to safeguarding concerns.

 

FORMATION AND TRAINING

  1. Basic Orientation Workshop on Safeguarding Vulnerable Persons (BOWS)

A 5- to 8-day (in-person) or 10-day online workshop orienting participants on the issue of sexual abuse of vulnerable persons and safeguarding as a response. This is recommended for clergy and religious, brothers, seminarians, laity, school administrators and personnel, parish collaborators, and other allied professionals with safeguarding roles. Workshops exclusive to a congregation, diocese, or institution may be arranged.

  1. Foundations of Safeguarding

A 2- to 3-day workshop focusing on the person and duty of the safeguarder through an intimate exploration of the problem of abuse of vulnerable persons and the essentials in preparing the self for the mission. Workshops exclusive to a congregation, diocese, or institution may be arranged.

  1. Courses by Sector

Short courses that help sectors such as schools, families, youth, social apostolates, and development groups, integrate and institutionalize safeguarding in their programs and structures. This course may be tailored depending on the needs of the participants.  Workshops exclusive to a congregation, diocese, or institution may be arranged.

  1. Courses by Topic

Short workshops that dig deep into cross-cutting topics that underlie or impact the abuse issue and thoughtfully inform the development of safeguarding programs and structures.  Topics include sexuality and identity, power relations, media, the law, and more.
