"As a trained investigator, I wasn’t sure what to expect and how beneficial this training would be. I recommend this course to anyone who truly wants to make a positive impact on the plague of child exploitation. The quality of instruction far exceeded anything I experienced in all of my training.”
PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR, B.H.
“Exceedingly beyond my expectations, day 1 shifted my paradigm beyond awareness. This was my first exposure to anything like this other than awareness and some previous info from Vets 4 Child Rescue. I will leave here different than I arrived and more equipped. I will pray for you all. I am in NC and will do anything I can to help. Thank you.”
