SAFE Center Training Courses.

The SAFE Center has collaborated with organizations and departments across the state of Iowa to bring high-level training and education services to sexual assault examiners and response teams.

SANE Training & Other Multi-Disciplinary Professional Training

The SAFE Center provides the only accredited 40-hour initial classroom training program for SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) Nurses available in the state of Iowa. Our SANE-accredited programs meet the rigorous standards set by the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN) and by the Iowa Attorney General’s office associated code 915, ensuring that nurses are eligible to sit for international SANE Certification upon completion.
 
Beyond our foundational SANE training, the SAFE Center offers comprehensive in-person continuing education opportunities for professionals across multiple disciplines involved in sexual assault response. These trainings cover a wide range of critical topics, including multidisciplinary team collaboration, mock exams and hands-on simulation, proper evidence handling and documentation, trauma-informed interviewing techniques, and best practices in forensic nursing and victim advocacy.
 
We are dedicated to supporting healthcare professionals, law enforcement, advocates, prosecutors, and other community partners through high-quality, interactive training experiences.
