MPIOs
|
A Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) is the first point of call in a club or sporting organisation for any enquiries, concerns or complaints around harassment and abuse. The MPIO provides confidential information and moral support to the person with the concern or who is alleging harassment.
To become a MPIO, a person is nominated by their sport and completes an ASC approved two-day course where they are assessed as to their competency to undertake the role. Once accredited, a MPIO is listed (with their contact details) on the member protection database. The database allows people in need of the services of a MPIO, to find a MPIO in their sport and/or their state.
