Safe Environment Training

Greetings from the Diocese of Phoenix Safe Environment Office!

The Safe Environment Training year runs from July 1 and ends June 30. It is time to complete your Safe Environment Training for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. 

We are pleased to announce that the focus of our training this year is on boundaries and understanding the signs and symptoms of abuse in children. In addition, we are highlighting the updated Policy and Procedures for the Protection of Minors specifically on the use of Electronic Communications.  We highly encourage you to take the additional trainings we have made available for you after you complete the Safe Environment Renewal (Vulnerable Adult Training and Suicide Prevention).

To complete your training, please log in to your CMG profile.
