End Violence Against Women (EVAW) International is pleased to announce:

*         The Launch of the On Line Training Institute for Sexual
Assault Response

*         The Speakers and Agenda for the 2007 Conference in Houston

 

Sexual Assault On Line Training Institute 

EVAW International has launched the On Line Training Institute* (OLTI),
a state-of-the-art training tool

intended for law enforcement and other professionals involved in the
criminal justice and community 

response to sexual assault.  The OLTI promotes a multi-disciplinary
community response with particular 

emphasis on sex crimes committed by someone who is known to the victim
(i.e. non-strangers).

Enrolling in the OLTI is a simple process, and any professional
interested in finding out more can enroll in

  

  
  

  

  
  
an introductory module absolutely free of charge.  The introductory
module is entitled:  "Effective Report

  

  
  

  

  
  
Writing: Using the Language of Non-Consensual Sex," and it is designed
to help investigators conduct a 

  

  
  

  

  
  
preliminary victim interview and write a report that will support
successful prosecution.
Other modules in the OLTI address such critical topics as:

 

*       Dynamics:  What Does Sexual Assault Really Look Like? 

*       Victim Impact:  How Victims are Affected by Sexual Assault and
How Law Enforcement 
Professionals Can Respond Successfully

*       Preliminary Investigation:  Guidelines for First Responders

*       Law and Investigative Strategy:  What Kind of Sexual Assault Is
This?

*       Interviewing the Victim:  Techniques Based on the Realistic
Dynamics of Sexual Assault

*       False Reports:  Moving Beyond the Issue to Successfully
Investigate and Prosecute Non-
Stranger Sexual Assault

 

Beyond the free, introductory module, community professionals can also
sign up for other

training topics for a nominal fee of $50 per module or $200 for a track
of six modules.  Agencies 

registering 30 or more people for the OLTI will receive an additional
discount of $25 off the price of each 

track of six modules.  With this group discount, the price is $175 -- an
average of only $29 per module. 

Certificates will be issued upon successful completion of each module.
