Understanding Exploitation Training

This course is delivered by members of Oldham’s Complex Safeguarding Team and representatives from services supporting adults in Oldham. It aims to equip practitioners with enhanced knowledge and skills to identify and respond appropriately to the exploitation of children, young people and adults.

The purpose of the course is to raise awareness about Criminal, Sexual and Financial exploitation including Modern Slavery and Cuckooing, and to help practitioners recognise the potential signs of exploitation and risk factors. The session focuses on how best to offer help and support, the local response pathways and local practitioner resources available; highlights national and local learning; and covers aspects including the point of view of survivors, complex safeguarding, intersectionality, the importance of language and trauma informed approaches, and transitions planning for young people preparing for adulthood. There are additional training session available which are designed to complement this course including ‘Contextual Safeguarding’; ‘Appropriate Use of Language’; and ‘What is Complex Safeguarding’.
