March 6, 2025 - USA Swimming to Update SafeSport® Courses March 25th
USA Swimming will be updating the APT Safe Sport® Core and Refresher Courses. If you are in progress of any current courses, you need to complete them by Tuesday, March 25 to avoid having progress reset and having to restart from the beginning.
Courses to be updated include:
- SafeSport® Trained Core
- Refresher 1, 2, and 3
- Parent’s Guide to Misconduct in Sport
- SafeSport® for Youth Athletes (Ages 13-17)
- SafeSport® for Kids
All updated courses will include new content reflecting the 2024 SafeSport Code and 2025 MAAPP, as well as technical fixes to correct minor bugs. The SafeSport® Trained Core and Refresher courses also include several updates to improve the learning experience (e.g., fewer videos, easier to read). The course for Parents has been updated to improve accessibility for learners with disabilities. The courses for Youth Athletes and Kids will now be available in English, Spanish, and French.
The updates will not change the status of course completions prior to March 25.
