Practical Live Training for Aspiring & Existing Film Set Chaperones
Film Set Chaperoning is a specialist area of childcare and child welfare within film, television, commercials, theatre, advertising, digital content and other entertainment and performance environments.
A Film Set Chaperone has an important role in supporting and safeguarding the child while working within a busy production environment — where schedules, locations, unfamiliar adults, performance requirements and welfare needs all have to be managed professionally.
The KL Childcare Academy Film Set Chaperone Workshop Series gives you the opportunity to explore different parts of the Film Set Chaperone journey through focused, practical live training.
Whether you are completely new to Film Set Chaperoning, preparing to enter the profession, already working with children or an existing chaperone looking to strengthen your business and professional systems, you can choose the workshop that is most relevant to where you are now.
You do not need to complete the full series. Attend one workshop, several workshops, or progress through all six as part of the complete Film Set Chaperone Specialist Programme.

Each Film Set Chaperone workshop is designed as a focused, practical learning experience that can be attended independently where you already have the appropriate foundation knowledge.
