Discover the all-in-one safeguarding platform
for Canadian churches.
Every Feature You Need. Nothing You Don’t.
From training to screening to the proof that protects you, it all lives in one place.
“I need to be able to prove we did the right thing.”
-
Every Police Check, training record, quiz score, signed policy acknowledgement, reference result, and admin note, gathered into one time-stamped record. Generated in under two minutes. This is the document your insurer or board needs to see, and the proof that protects your church if an allegation ever comes. And it lasts. The Audit Report is archived for 50 years and held independently, so the record survives staff changes, software changes, and the passage of time, and is still there on the day it is needed.
“I need to get volunteers onboarded and keep them.”
-
Six age-specific training pathways: Intro, Babies & Toddlers, Children, Youth, Vulnerable Adults, and Comprehensive. Volunteers learn only what’s relevant to their role.
-
Professionally produced video content built on mastery-based micro-learning. Completable in one sitting, on any device. Quizzes require 100% to pass. If a volunteer gets a question wrong, the platform links them directly to the section of the video that covers that concept. They watch it, then try again. This means annual refreshers are fast: volunteers who already understand the material can jump straight to the quiz and only review what they've forgotten.
-
Run in-person group training using Safe Pathways. Printed quizzes and sign-in sheets ensure every attendee gets certificate. Perfect for seniors and after Sunday service orientations.
-
Volunteers see exactly where they are: what’s done, what’s pending, what’s next.
-
Your volunteer names and emails sync automatically so you don’t have to type them. No duplicate data entry.
-
Every volunteer’s safeguarding status at a glance. Filter by pathway, ministry, or status.
-
Automated email reminders when training is due, police checks are expiring, or references haven’t arrived. Your staff never chases volunteers again.
-
References are automatically contacted by email, respond through a structured form with questions you set, and results log to the volunteer’s profile automatically.
-
Initiate Enhanced Criminal Record Checks via Canpro SOS directly from the platform. Track status without switching systems.
-
Every training and police check has a lifecycle. The platform flags renewals before they lapse.
“I need full visibility of my volunteers’ progress.”
“I need policies that actually match our insurance requirements.”
-
A complete safeguarding policy written for your insurer, containing exactly what they require. Adopt it as written, and your policy matches what your insurer asks for. Safe Pathways offers policies custom-aligned for Ecclesiastical, Intact, Northbridge, Robertson Hall, Wynward, and more.
-
Want to go beyond insurance requirements? We have a suite of additional clauses of best practices you can include for transportation, overnight events, digital communication, and more.
-
Consent forms, board resolutions, volunteer applications, and other supporting documents. They are yours to edit and use as you see fit.
-
Everything belongs to you. Edit freely, keep it all even if you leave. No approval required to edit your own policies.
-
We walk your board through each policy: what’s required by your insurer vs. what’s recommended best practice.
-
Volunteers acknowledge policies digitally. Every sign-off logged with a timestamp.
