TSPA Trust & Safety Curriculum #
TSPA partners with those trust and safety teams to equip them with the expertise and skills they need to successfully navigate this incredibly high-stakes environment. This curriculum, written by volunteers with extensive experience in the field, is a key piece of that support. The Trust & Safety Curriculum defines core concepts, terms, and standard practices that make up the body of knowledge we call “trust and safety.” Through this curriculum, we hope to develop and democratize access to this field by helping aspiring or new trust and safety professionals gain a deeper understanding of this work. We hope this curriculum provides context on the complex considerations that influence how trust and safety professionals define acceptable behavior and content online and work to safeguard user safety and privacy.
