Non-Violent Crisis Intervention (CPI) Trainings:
SASED Cooperative will be offering Crisis Prevention Institute's (CPI) Nonviolent Crisis Intervention training for educators who directly intervene in crisis situations, teaching staff de-escalation techniques and restrictive and nonrestrictive interventions. Staff will learn decision-making skills to match the level of the response to the risk of the crisis, focusing on the least-restrictive response to ensure the care, welfare, safety, and security of students. This includes recognizing the stages of an escalating crisis and learning evidence-based techniques to appropriately de-escalate. *Information retrieved from the Crisis Prevention Institute Website - www.crisisprevention.com
For the remainder of the school year, we will be offering a CPI training once per quarter. The next training session is outlined below. Please remember to go to the SASED website and fill out the Google Doc so we can plan accordingly.

How to Complete Functional Behavioral Assessments (FBAs) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs)
Join us for an initial or refresher training on how to complete FBAs and BIPs! We will discuss and practice analyzing behavior data, determining functions of behavior, considering other required and supplementary components of an FBA (e.g., observations, questionnaires), and how to write an FBA. Then we will cover how to use the FBA to write a BIP. This training will be tailored towards School Psychologists and School Social Workers, but others are also welcome!
