Course Description

Our Internationally recognised and University accredited Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery course distinguishes itself by offering an unmatched depth of knowledge and real-world application. Being accredited by Ulster University ensures that the curriculum is not only academically rigorous but also aligned with the latest industry standards. Figures supplied by the International Labour Organization estimated that human trafficking netted organised criminals in excess of $236 billion dollars in 2021. This seems like a huge sum but perhaps not unrealistic when we consider a 2014 report from Global Financial Integrity who estimate that the global illegal drug market yields between $426 and $652 billion. When we consider that human trafficking and the illicit narcotics trade are today often viewed as a criminal pairing the numbers start to make sense. Consequently, this course has been the preferred learning choice for global Law Enforcement, Military, Border Patrol, Human Trafficking Investigators, Intelligence Analysts, Government Agencies, the service industry, NGO's, journalists and private investigators for over five years.
