What is SOAR Online?
SOAR Online, part of the SOAR National Training Program, offers free, self-paced training courses that participants can complete anytime, anywhere.
Foundational courses introduce the SOAR (Stop-Observe-Ask-Respond) Framework, equipping participants to:
- Identify individuals who may be at risk of, currently experiencing, or have experienced human trafficking
- Connect them with appropriate support and services.
Advanced trainings and microlearnings build on this foundation, helping participants deepen knowledge, strengthen practical skills, and apply learning to specific situations and professional settings.
Most SOAR Online courses qualify for continuing education (CE) and continuing medical education (CME) credits.
