Overview

Child sexual exploitation (CSE) is a serious crime, and one that affects more children and young people that than you may realise. In this level 1 of this course, you'll take a look at what child sexual exploitation actually means, learn about typical offender behaviour and get a clear picture of the impact on victims of CSE. After developing an understanding of the offence and who the offenders are, you'll learn how to spot the warning signs.

Our Child Sexual Exploitation (Level 2) course is the next step if you'd like to build on this foundation knowledge, looking at what to do if you suspect a child is the victim of CSE.

The course contains plenty of additional resource materials, useful links and a refresher guide for future reference.
