LCA Safe Church Training
Safe Church Face-to-Face, Online Training and Refresher Training
By providing a comprehensive Safe Church training program, the Professional Standards Department (PSD) assists congregations and other bodies to promote high standards of ethical behaviour and care for all, especially for children and others in vulnerable circumstances.
Our training is part of the LCA’s commitment to reflecting God’s love through the way we treat each other and those who come into contact with our church. It is also designed to meet our commitments under the National Council of Churches Safe Church Training Agreement.
Some topics covered in the Safe Church training may raise sensitivities for you. It is important that you do what you need to do, to feel comfortable. Everyone is different – for many, face-to-face training will be better because you are likely to be surrounded by friends who can care for you. Others might prefer to undertake the online training, in the comfort of their own home and amongst family.
In any event, before engaging with this training, please ensure you have a person you can trust to talk to about any of the issues raised. This might be a friend or a medical professional.
These free helplines may also be useful:
1800 Respect - 1800 737 732
Bravehearts - 1800 272 831
Lifeline - 13 11 14
Lifeline Aotearoa (New Zealand) - 0800 543 354
If you are feeling apprehensive about attempting any part of the Safe Church training, you are certainly welcome to get in touch with your District Professional Standards Officer to figure out the best training approach for you and your individual circumstances.
We understand that training requires a significant commitment of time for the participants. It is important that we consider this as an investment in safe ministry practice. For more information, please see the Safe Church Training Overview.
Please note: due to social distancing measures, we may not be able to book in a requested face-to-face workshop. Contact your District PSO if you require further information.
Contact your District PSO with any questions you may have about the training currently available online, what it involves and who is required to do it. You can find their details on our Professional Standards homepage.

- All Safe Church Training is valid for three years
- To be considered eligible for refresher training you will have completed all components of Level 1 Safe Church Training within the last three years.
- The suggested order for Safe Church Training is to complete Level 1 – Session 1, 2 and 3 in its entirety (or provide evidence of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for appropriate sessions) within the last three years before commencing Level 2.
Recognised Prior Learning is available for Level 1 of the Safe Church Training.
- Session 1: Standards of Ethical Behaviour
Eligibility criteria: Valuing Safe Communities version 4 valid for three years from the completion date & current version 5) Currency in both Initial training (both workshop and online components), or VSC 4/5 online Refresher, or VSC 4/5 Trainer accreditation.
Not eligible for RPL is the VSC 4/5 Volunteer and Relief Staff
- Session 3: Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults
Eligibility criteria: Currency (within 3 years) in an accredited child protection course. Eg: Reporting Abuse and Neglect, Through Their Eyes, In Safe Hands, ISQ Child Protection for Schools, Child Protection (Complispace), Mandated Child Protection … there may be others.
This will generally apply to those working with children in areas such as schools, childcare, medical environments, emergency or community services and the like.
Those seeking RPL
- The applicant must hold current certification as relevant and is responsible for providing the evidence.
Process
- The person seeking the RPL supplies their District Professional Standards Officer (PSO) with a copy (not the original) of their current accreditation as relevant
- Information required to determine RPL status
1. Training/program/course eg: Valuing Safe Communities 4 Initial / VSC 4 Refresher, ‘Child Safe Environments’, ‘Reporting Abuse and Neglect’, ‘Child Protection’
2. Name of accrediting body
3. Date of accreditation
4. Expiry date of accreditation (where available)
5. Certificate/Document Reference No. (where available)
6. List of topics covered (where available) - This could take the form of either:
- a copy (not original) of the actual certificate (which includes the above information)
- a signed letter (on official letterhead) confirming applicant’s training (as relevant) currency, from the accrediting body or an employer, which cites all of the above information (1–6).
Note: The applicant may wish to have a pre-written letter or email with the above relevant information, available for the employer/trainer to sign/endorse.
- PSO forwards this information to the National Training Coordinator for validation.
- Determination is provided and recorded. Possible determinations will be:
1. RPL granted.
2. RPL to be granted on successful completion of a validation task.
3. RPL not granted (the applicant will then need to undertake the relevant sessions of the Level 1 workshop). - National Training Coordinator confirms the outcome with the applicant and PSO.
To be noted
- RPL currency only extends to a three-year period from the date accreditation was granted, NOT from the time the RPL was granted.
- Other organisations are unlikely to accept LCA Professional Standards Safe Church Training as RPL.
- A current Working with Children type check (WWCC)/Police Check, while it might be necessary for the role of working with children or vulnerable adults, on its own is insufficient to be considered for RPL for this training.
General inquiries
- To be directed to the District PSO.
