The CCES engaged in consultations with the sport community starting in June 2024. A key focus of the consultations was the development of the Canadian Safe Sport Program (CSSP) Rules that set out how the CCES will independently administer the Universal Code of Conduct to Prevent and Address Maltreatment in Sport (UCCMS). Following two rounds of consultation with the sport community and subject matter experts, the rules were finalized and available for adoption by federally funded sport organizations at the national level in January 2025.
