The SAFETY Clinician’s Workshop

The Clinician’s Workshop is a “train-the-trainer” program designed to teach recreation directors and youth sport administrators the fundamentals of conducting the Rutgers SAFETY Clinic – Sports Awareness for Educating Today’s Youth. The Curriculum for the award-winning Rutgers SAFETY Clinic is based upon the Minimum Standards for Volunteer Coaches’ Safety Orientation and Training Skills Program (N.J.A.C. 5:52) developed by the Governor’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports.

The Clinician’s Workshop is designed for adult learners and will cover:

  • Administration/Teaching Tools & Techniques
  • The Rutgers SAFETY Clinic Lesson Plans
  • Registration of Coaches with CommunityPass

Following attendance at the Clinician’s Workshop, instructor candidates must pass a take-home exam (minimum passing score of 90%) to become eligible to teach the clinic. Thereafter, Clinicians must teach the clinic at least once/year to retain their certification.
