The main purpose of the Club Welfare Officer is to implement good practice, safeguarding and child protection policies within the club and act as the first point of contact for individuals who have queries or concerns. The British Triathlon safeguarding policy and procedures along with additional help, advice and guidance can be found on our website under safeguarding.

It is a mandatory requirement that clubs with junior members under the age of 18 or adults at risk that affiliate to British Triathlon must have a Welfare Officer appointed.

Should you wish to continue your coaching journey from the old L1 qualification you will transition into the Group Coach to continue your qualification development expanding your learning, knowledge and coaching remit.

Our old qualifications have come to an end. Our research, insight and sector standards highlighted the L1 is no longer fit for purpose. We want to make our coaching pathway accessible providing a solid entry into coaching building skills and knowledge.

We need to make changes due to numerous factors:

• Project 21 provide us with insight into our current offer and the need for change.
• Feedback from the old qualifications by Internal and External Verifies, tutors and coaches attending our qualifications showed there is too much on the old qualification.
• Participation products will now also be aligned to Awards and Qualifications from the outset.
• Changes in the sector increasing education standards in coaching.
• CIMSPA standards have launched to improve coaching standards.
• To ensure we are fit for the future with our learning.

Collectively this brings everything to life from our Education and Learning Strategic Framework 2022 -2027.
