Digital Opportunities for the Management of Sexual or Violent Offenders (MOSOVO)

Online Self-Study

In this interactive course, you'll learn about the methods offenders use to access prohibited material, techniques they employ to hide their activities, and approaches you can use to identify these behaviours during a home visit.

The course consists of several modules, each building on the last, to deepen your understanding and skills.

We'll begin by identifying ways to prepare yourself for a visit, ensuring you're fully equipped to engage with the subject and assess their electronic lifestyle to detect any signs of offending.

Next, we'll explore the methods people may use to access or share prohibited material, as well as ways they might communicate with others in potentially harmful ways.

Lastly, we'll cover techniques for examining electronic devices, enabling you to detect whether someone has used certain methods to access prohibited material or communicate in ways that could violate a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
