Online training on your schedule! Watch presentations, fulfill assignments, connect with participants and complete self-assessments at your pace.   

This dynamic course focuses on how to identify children's triggers, how to de-escalate prior to a crisis, and how to handle a crisis situation if it arises.  Prevent problem behaviors before they arise, and help children build self-awareness and self-regulation skills.  Make any situation into an opportunity for learning, insight, and growth.  Participants receive concrete, useful tools that they can start using right away.

•  Apply strategies to support child in crisis de-escalation before or during a crisis.
