Description:

At this event, participants will receive their initial training in NVCI. This training helps staff assess a student's behaviors (verbal and non-verbal) to identify when they may be feeling anxious. Staff are trained to intervene quickly with support to deescalate the student. Staff are also trained to be mindful of their own actions, behaviors and words as what they say and do will affect the student. Participants are given specific tools on how to intervene with a student in crisis in the most appropriate and least restrictive way. Finally, staff will learn disengagement and holding skills to only be used if needed as a last resort during a crisis situation. Participants will receive a Blue Card from CPI to show they are certified in NVCI.

Please note: face masks will be required during the practice of disengagement skills and holds.

Price: $245.00
