Safesport
All members over the age of 18 must complete Safesport. The larger course SafeSport Trained - NGB1 Needs to be completed every four years. Refresher 1: Recognizing and Reporting Misconduct - NGB1 Needs to be completed annually as a refresher course.
You CAN NOT participate in any practice, activity, event, etc if your Safesport is valid (pay attention to expiration dates).Please make sure when creating an account for Safeport training that you use the same name and date of birth as you use for your USA Waterski membership.
The training is valid for 12 months from completion. This may or may not align with your USA Waterski membership expiration date.
The website to complete the safe sport training is:
https://safesporttrained.org/#/public-dashboard
You will need to login (or create an account). You find the courses under the Dashboard/catalog and search for the trainings highlighted above. Click enroll; once enrolled then you can view the courses under - My Courses when you are logged in the website.
I have given an example below about completion needs to help decrease confusion:
