Welcome to the National Center for Victims of Crime’s online learning platform.
Overview
The National Center for Victims of Crime is the nation’s leading resource and advocacy organization for victims of all types of crime, regardless of whether the crime is physical, emotional, or financial. Since our founding in 1985, we have played a critical role in shaping the national discussion on the impact of crime and what victims need in order to recover, and we have helped many people understand that justice for crime victims involves more than holding offenders accountable for their crimes. In short, our mission is to forge a national commitment to help victims of crime rebuild their lives by serving the victims, their families, and their communities.
Through the support of the federal government, the National Center was able to create this online learning platform for victim service providers and other allied professionals who serve crime victims.
Our goal is for victim service providers to use these trainings so they can better help victims of crime, as well as bring attention to the enduring and emerging issues in the field.
The Training
The education and training modules on this site are easily accessible and free of cost, and they use proven pedagogical methods, such as interactive components and review quizzes. Our staff, a collection of individuals who have a range of subject matter expertise, have crafted lessons that will ensure trainees get the most out of their time here.
Using a login system, trainees are able to register for an account, enroll in courses, and track their progress through each training, as well as through the entire course catalog.
Accessibility
In constructing this platform, we aimed to keep accessibility a top priority. We wanted to ensure that trainees and visitors who require an ADA and/or Section 508 compliant website are able to take full advantage of every aspect offered on the site.
That being said, technology is always changing, and we are committed to making every effort to keep this site accessible to all. If you have a problem with the site, identify a component that is not compliant with assistive technologies, or discover something that otherwise needs to be addressed, please let us know. You can contact us via email, telephone, or contact form.
