ECPAT UK’s multidisciplinary team provides a wide range of training courses relating to modern slavery, trafficking and exploitation for individuals and organisations. As well as the training courses offered below, we can provide bespoke training to your organisation to ensure it is tailored and relevant to your work.
ECPAT UK has delivered training courses for more than 20 years to build frontline workers' capacity and improve responses to child trafficking, modern slavery and exploitation across the UK. Our comprehensive training programme has been created in line with National Occupational Standards and many of our courses are CPD accredited.
We've adapted our training courses so that you can continue learning online until we are able to hold training sessions in person once more. We've been working to ensure our courses remain of the highest quality and to maintain the interactive nature of our training.
Most courses now consist of half-day two modules which are completed over Zoom. We are pleased to offer discounts for multiple team member bookings - simply get in touch with Phil by emailing [email protected] to discuss your organisation's needs.
