Child Sexual Exploitation Awareness Certificate

Child Sexual Exploitation Awareness Certificate Course

Children are becoming at risk of sexual exploitation at an alarming rate across the UK. In 2016, it was reported that over 4,000 London children were ‘at risk of sexual exploitation’. The perpetrators can be people whom the children already know or the exploitation can result from online sources. The best way in which to keep the children in your life safe from this type of exploitation is to be armed with as much knowledge as possible. Understanding how and why exploitation occurs, as well as who is most likely to be targeted, is the first step in preventing it from happening to your loved ones or children in your care. This course goes into detail regarding child sexual exploitation. We begin by giving you a brief introduction to the topic, including a definition of the term and specific examples. Next, we talk about how child sexual exploitation occurs, including the warning signs that you should look for and the behaviour patterns displayed by those who are most likely to start grooming children. We then discuss the reactions that children have to being exploited. Finally, we review the best practices for responding to and reporting allegations of sexual abuse or exploitation.

You Will Learn:

  • The most common models of grooming for sexual exploitation
  • The warning signs exhibited by children who may be being sexually exploited
  • The emotional and physical effects of sexual exploitation
  • The reasons why children may choose not to report incidents of sexual exploitation or abuse
  • How to respond if a child in your life discloses sexual exploitation or abuse

Benefits of Taking this Course:

  • Understanding about the dangers that sexual exploitation poses to the children in your life
  • Learning the importance of creating an atmosphere where a child feels safe and believed
  • Understanding about the risks of online grooming and how to combat them
  • Learning about the reporting process and why it is best to leave your name when going through the process
  • Understanding more about your role and responsibilities in keeping the children in your life safe from harm

This course was excellent, detailed and enjoyable. It gave me lots of information and helped me develop my skills and knowledge to assist facilitate learning of students that have special educational needs. It outlined the main conditions that fall into the categories of SEN and a detailed explanation of them.

This course also gave me lots of ideas on how to assist learners and the confidence of how to develop my teaching resources. It also highlighted the relevant legislation covering special educational needs and gave me important information regarding the roles and responsibilities of the SENCO and the teacher in supporting learners.

I now feel more confident that I will be able to support these students better.

Quick and easy, can learn in your own time which was great. I have an 8-week old baby and managed to complete with no pressure. Everything was broken down so well and helpful videos along the way.

Will be taking more courses with New Skills Academy, I wish I did the course years ago. I have the experience in waxing but because I gave up my college course to have my baby, I don’t have the time to go back and I was close to qualifying.

I took this course and passed without all the hassle of going back for a year. Thank you, New Skills Academy.

I have just completed the ADHD Diploma.

I found the course extremely interesting and informative, especially for parents with children who have ADHD or people who work with children with the condition. It has changed my perspective on the condition a lot. I have therefore recommended this course to others.

The course was very well structured and easy to navigate. The wording used was simple to understand yet effective. The test was multiple choice which I liked and you are able to access your certificate straight after successful completion of the test which I thought was great.

I will definitely be purchasing another course from New Skills Academy.
