SafeSport and Background Screening REQUIREMENT

BEFORE the 2023-24 season starts (ASAP if after October 2nd, 2023) AND BEFORE taking the ice (for coaching roles).

AS A MANAGER OR COACH I MUST:

          - Complete the current SafeSport training or refresher  (required every year). 

There isn't a certificate to save any longer.  This training resets every September - so it is recommended to knock this out in mid-to-late September before the season starts the first week of October.  There's still no cost on this training. (CLICK HERE - Create an account if necessary)

Once into the USA Hockey Courses site, click on the "My Profile" tab at the top & choose "Coaching Information" in the gray box. this will show your CEP #, Certification Level (& when it expires), all age modules completed (see below) and there's a gray box under SafeSport for training/renewals - that's the link you want to click to complete this training.

Update - September 2023:
If you have already completed SafeSport before and need to renew - you should receive an email noting these details:

If you are a coach or an official go to https://courses.usahockey.com/public/
Log in with your user name and password
On the home screen click link to go to "Coach eLearning" - Safe Sport Training should be listed
Follow the steps on the Learning page to enroll in next course

If you are a player or volunteer (including Manager) go to https://membership.usahockey.com/member/login
Log in with your confirmation number and password
On the home screen click the Go To Training and follow the steps to enroll in next course

If you experience technical difficulties, please contact USA Hockey Member Services at memberservices@usahockey.org. Provide your name, USA Hockey confirmation number and explanation or screen shot of the issue.

AND

  • Verify that my background screening is in good standing:

                     Can check here:  LOEAHA Website - Good To Go List
(Remember this site shows the season the new screen is DUE, not the season it is good through...)

                     If screen is due: Background Screen (usahockey.com)
 

AND FOR ALL COACHES:

  • Complete the Age-Appropriate Training for the level(s) I'm coaching at BEFORE I can go on the ice
  • Plan to Complete my CEP Coaching Clinic BEFORE 12/31/23 (in order to still go on the ice after 1/1/24)
