Responsible Gaming Education Month returns to ensure we ‘Play Smart from the Start’
EPIC Global Solutions looks forward to encouraging people to ‘Play Smart from the Start’ as Responsible Gaming Education Month (RGEM) returns this month to ensure that responsible gaming awareness is firmly at the heart of a safe and sustainable gambling industry.
RGEM takes place in the US each September to raise awareness of the industry’s responsible gaming education efforts. The concept is intended to promote gaming literacy and consumer education, elevate employee training, and work with partners to advance our understanding of responsible gambling – all key elements of the work undertaken by EPIC.
The 2025 campaign theme, ‘Play Smart from the Start’, encourages anyone choosing to gamble to understand the risks, set personal limits, and make educated choices from day one.
Our lived experience-based model has been successful in helping others to understand how to follow that advice, coming from those who admit that their own style of play didn’t feature smart choices at key moments in their lives.
We’ll be spending the month on our company channels explaining how we help the key organizations in the industry to get this messaging and approach right, with our combination of training, consultancy and education helping many of the US’ best-known gambling brands to focus their responsible gaming practices towards methods that are designed to protect those engaging in wagering activities.
Both our staff and key clients will help to explain how our model has helped to create a greater understanding of RG’s importance among gambling operators and their players, via a series of social media features throughout the month.
We’ll also take a deeper look at how we’re directly educating college students to make more informed decisions around gambling and financial matters in partnership with Responsible Online Gaming Association and our other trusted collaborators on the ‘Know Your Play’ platform, which has grown its audience five times over in as many months.
Those and other special set-piece events will be part of a key month in driving the responsible gaming message home across the country. Stay focused on our channels to hear how we say it…
