New Safer Gambling Education Program Goes Live

YGAM and Betknowmore have just launched the Safer Gambling Training Pledge, which is designed to educate industry CEOs and directors about safer gambling and harm prevention through a number of training programs taking place during Safer Gambling Week.

Participants are invited to complete five online modules that cover topics such as customer vulnerability, mental health, safeguarding, customer interaction, and support services.

The program brings together specialist knowledge and research to form one of the most advanced training programs currently available. The content is informed by lived experience, and it is relevant to the latest LCCP requirements. Furthermore, the training has been awarded the highly respected City & Guilds Assured status, which means that those who complete it will receive formal certification.
