SVN Supervised Exchange Certificate

Supervised exchange providers play a critical role in reducing children's exposure to conflict while supporting compliance with court orders and promoting family safety. Although exchanges may last only a few minutes, they often occur during some of the most emotionally charged moments a family experiences.


The Foundations of Supervised Exchange Services Credential Course is designed to meet the applicable SVN Standards for supervised exchange services. Course content reflects the professional knowledge, safety considerations, ethical practices, and service delivery principles established by SVN to support high-quality, child-centered supervised exchange services. View the SVN Training Standards HERE.

Grounded in the SVN Standards, this comprehensive training combines evidence-informed practices with real-world application to prepare providers for the complex situations they may encounter in exchange services. Through engaging instruction, interactive activities, and realistic scenarios participants will learn how to create safe, predictable, and child-centered exchanges while maintaining neutrality, professionalism, and ethical practice.


An on-demand, asynchronous training is a flexible, self-paced learning experience that participants can access anytime. There are no scheduled sessions or live attendance requirements—learners move through the material on their own timeline using pre-recorded content, activities, and resources. This format allows individuals to engage with the training when it works best for them and revisit content as needed.

SVN is going to Nashville for "What Works?"

By Jennifer Garst • April 16, 2026
What Works? is a two-day, unscripted, participant-driven learning experience built on the belief that the best ideas already exist in the room. Designed for connection, collaboration, and real-world problem solving, this interactive experience brings providers together to learn from one another, share strategies, and strengthen supervised visitation practice—together. You’ll also have access to a dedicated space for attendees to connect before and after the event—making it easier to network, continue conversations, and keep the work going long after Nashville. Rather than scripted presentations, What Works? centers on open dialogue, shared challenges, and peer-to-peer exchange. Participants will connect with colleagues from across the field, explore different approaches, and build relationships that extend well beyond the event.

Are Custody Exchanges at Police Stations safe?

By Joe Nullet • August 11, 2025
Custody Exchanges at Police Stations: Are they Safe? The idea sounds reasonable. If I want to insure that my child and I are safe when exchanging my child, surely I will be safe at the Police Station doing this, right? Local Police Stations have even been announcing established safe exchange zones, which are clearly marked areas in the parking lot of a well-lit police station, or even in the lobby of the police station, for people to meet and sell their craigslist or online purchased goods with less fear of a quick or violent rip-off. The problem is that these announcements have been increasingly mentioning that these typically un-staffed and un monitored, other than by camera, zones can also be used for child custody exchanges.
