Human Trafficking: Identify & Respond The goal of this training program is to provide an overview of some of the issues involved in human trafficking that officers may face in the field. This facilitation guide is intended to assist in the delivery of the video material in an interactive and thought-provoking manner. It provides suggestions to help facilitate most sections of the video; however it is not a comprehensive guide for every aspect of the video. The videos do not necessarily depict a correct or incorrect way to handle a situation. The goal is for the students to engage in discussion of the topic and how it relates to them and to their agency. The guide may be used by facilitators of all experience levels to help the students get the most out of the material. This guide contains the following sections: 1) Video Viewing Options and Features, 2) a Brief Overview of the Scenarios with key learning points, 3) an Expanded Content Guide, and 4) a Student Study Guide Answer Key. The Video Viewing Options and Features section describes how the video is formatted and organized for use by facilitators or individual trainees. The Brief Overview of the Scenarios describes each scenario and lists the key learning points for each section. It can assist a facilitator in getting up to speed with the material quickly. The Expanded Content Guide is designed for use in a traditional training session where more time is available to explore the subject in depth. The expanded guide contains the same information as the brief scenario overview, plus provides suggested questions to facilitate most sections of the video, sample learning activities for small groups, and additional learning points that are often found in the interview comments. A Student Study Guide Answer Key, which is a completed version of the Student Study Guide, is included at the end of this document. To receive credit, individual students review their completed Student Study Guide with the designated training manager or supervisor. The facilitator should view and become familiar with all the material and key learning points in this course before use with students. This video is intended as a guide for discussion. Scenarios do not necessarily depict correct responses, and may not include a response at all. The goal is to create a venue for discussion and student interaction. The conclusion of the discussion should focus on the law and your specific agency policies. This video is designed to give the facilitator different viewing options. The video may be watched in its entirety in a single session or broken up into shorter segments. Each video segment is approximately 15 minutes long, making it ideal for facilitation in a briefing or roll call setting.

Video Viewing Options and Features The video will open with two different viewing options: Facilitated Group Course or Informational/Individual Viewing. Facilitated Group Course The Facilitated Group Course option should be selected when the video is being used in a classroom or briefing setting and an instructor or supervisor is present to facilitate the course. The material may be delivered in a single session or broken up over several days, such as delivery during briefing settings. The material is divided into tabbed sections that the facilitator may play in whatever order they feel best meets the training need. Once the material has been covered in its entirety, the supervisor or training manager (as designated by the department) may submit a completed training roster via EDI to POST for CPT credit for trainees who have completed the training. Informational/Individual Viewing The Informational/Individual Viewing option should be selected when an officer is viewing the video alone or without an instructor or supervisor present to facilitate the delivery of the material. This option should not be used in a group training session. This option is intended for officers who work in a remote location or for a smaller agency that cannot readily access group training, or for an officer who is simply interested in viewing the video for informational purposes. The viewer will be guided through the video without facilitator interaction. At the discretion of the department designated training manager or supervisor, individual viewers may receive training credit for viewing this video. To receive credit, individual students must be provided with the student study guide that is attached as a PDF file on the DVD-ROM disc. The student watches the video and completes the study guide as they follow along. They then submit their completed study guide to the designated training manager or supervisor, who discusses the video and the student’s responses with them. Once the training manager or supervisor is satisfied that the student has demonstrated an understanding of the concepts of the video, the supervisor or training manager may submit a completed training roster via EDI to POST for CPT credit. A completed version of the student study guide (Student Study Guide Answer Key) is included at the end of this document. Navigating the Video On-screen tabs appear across the bottom of each section of the video and allow the facilitator to select in what order the students will view the information. If in doubt about which tab to select, the information will flow logically if the tabs are selected in order from left to right. Once a facilitator is familiar with the content, they may find it more comfortable to deliver the material in an order of their own choosing. Scenario Tabs Scenario tabs appear at the start of each section and indicate a video scenario that is used for that section. Task Tabs Task tabs appear after scenarios or discussion tabs and are simply on-screen questions or statements available to use for group discussion. Discussion Tabs Discussion tabs appear after each scenario. They show a sample facilitation of the scenario in a briefing setting. They are optional. If the facilitator feels comfortable delivering the key learning points of the material, they may do so on their own. If they are not comfortable with the learning points or their own facilitation skills
