FAQs

Scarab brings together leading experts in the child exploitation and child protection space. Our instructors are experienced practitioners and highly sought-after speakers in law enforcement, child protection, and multidisciplinary professional conferences and training events. Instructor biographies are available in the About Us section of this website. Because travel to conferences or hosting in-person training is often impractical or cost-prohibitive—particularly for agencies with operational demands—many professionals do not receive the foundational or advanced training needed to perform this work effectively. Scarab was created to address this gap by delivering high-quality, practitioner-informed training in a format that is accessible, flexible, and affordable. Scarab was created to solve that problem by offering high-quality instruction in a format that is accessible, convenient, and affordable. With Scarab, professionals can complete courses around operational schedules and participate in live webinars with subject-matter experts—without the time, expense, or logistical burden of travel.

In mythology, scarabs represent learning and growth—an appropriate symbol for a platform focused on professional development. In ancient Egyptian culture, scarab amulets were also associated with protection from evil. Because Scarab is committed to reducing exploitation, abuse, and harm to vulnerable people—particularly children—we believe the scarab is a meaningful and fitting metaphor for our mission.
