Training on Understanding and Preventing CSE

Next date: Wednesday, 05 November 2025 | 09:00 AM to 04:30 PM

This free training enables professionals and agencies involved with children and young people to gain a greater understanding of Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE).

It explores the sophisticated models of recruitment ("grooming") used to sexually exploit young people, as well as teaching skills in assessment and intervention with the aim of protecting young people and preventing CSE within communities.

 Please arrive 10 minutes early to complete registration. Catering will be provided.

This workshop looks at the current body of research in both an Australian and overseas context and covers the following key elements:

• Definitions and exploration of processes of control used in CSE.
• Common risk indicators found to be present in cases of CSE.
• Examining stereotypes and the use of language when responding to CSE.
• The impact of sexual exploitation and the needs of young people when considering intervention.
• How to risk assess specific cases to enable an informed approach to intervention.

Places are limited for this training, so please register by emailing info@projectparadigm.com.au

 This training is sponsored by the Queensland and Family Child Commissioner (QFCC).

Project Paradigm is a national program of IFYS (Integrated Family and Youth Services, based across Queensland) that's committed to building broad community and professional CSE awareness and understanding so that early warning signs and risks are easy recognised and understood.
