Curriculum
The Programme Pillars
Six pillars structure the two-day curriculum, each building applied capability, not just awareness.
Responsible Gaming Fundamentals
Core principles of responsible gaming: how risk develops, what protection looks like in practice, and the shared vocabulary regulators and operators need to work together.
Customer Protection
Practical tools for identifying at-risk behaviour, having protection conversations with customers, and applying safer-gambling interventions at the point of interaction.
Responsible Gaming Systems
Designing and operating the systems (self-exclusion, deposit limits, age verification, escalation pathways) that make responsible gaming enforceable, not aspirational.
Regulatory & Compliance Practice
What licensed operation actually requires: compliance obligations, reporting standards, and the working relationship between operators and their regulator.
Industry Ethics & Professional Standards
Professional conduct for customer-facing roles and affiliate promotion: the standards that protect customers and the credibility of the industry itself.
Practical Case Studies & Applied Learning
Real scenarios worked through in the room: applying the first five pillars to situations participants will actually face on the floor and in the field.
