# Recording training and reporting an incident

Add your safeguarding training and report a safeguarding incident while volunteering.

If your community uses it, the **Safeguarding** section lets you keep a record of your training. You can also report an incident that happened while you were volunteering.

Open [Volunteering](/volunteering) and press **Safeguarding** , just below the cards.

## Adding a training record

1. Choose Training Records and press Add Training.
2. Choose the Training Type.
3. Fill in the Training Name and the Provider.
4. Enter the Date Completed and any Expiry Date.
5. Press Save Record.

The record starts as **Pending** . A community administrator checks it and marks it **Verified** or **Rejected** .

## Reporting an incident

1. Choose Incident Reports and press Report Incident.
2. Give it a Title.
3. Describe what happened in Description. Use at least 20 characters.
4. Choose the Severity.
5. If you like, type a short Category that describes the kind of incident.
6. Press Report Incident.

You see **Incident reported.** Community administrators handle incident reports. The status changes as they work on it, for example **Investigating** or **Resolved** .

If someone is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services first. Do not wait for a reply here.
