Organise a DISARM Certification training for your team.

The DISARM Certification Course is focused on the real-world use of the DISARM framework, developed to give you the knowhow to effectively navigate, analyse, and report using the DISARM framework on disinformation incidents. Designed for practitioners and driven individuals looking to enter the counter-disinformation field.
