What is the Level 2 Safeguarding and Prevent course?
It is an online Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Safeguarding and Prevent, usually studied over about seven weeks. The three units cover the Prevent duty, safeguarding and online safety. Funding may be available to eligible adults; the provider confirms this.
Learning Curve Group positions this for anyone wanting to work in local authorities, schools, colleges, uniformed services or health and social care who needs to understand safeguarding and the Prevent duty.
The live page covers identifying signs of abuse, legal and ethical responsibilities, reporting procedures, and the wellbeing of children and young adults, plus a dedicated online-safety unit.
Learning Gateway is not the training provider. These courses are available through our training-provider network. Funding and final eligibility are confirmed by the provider.

Learning Curve Group has given UK Learning Gateway this baseline for Level 2 Flexible Learning learners. It is a starting point only — the provider's Pre-Check makes the final decision.
Final funding eligibility is determined through Learning Curve Group's Pre-Check and can vary by your circumstances, where you live, the funding route and provider availability. UK Learning Gateway does not override the provider's decision.
Availability and funding can depend on where you live. The provider's Pre-Check will confirm the options available for your postcode.
