Course Description:

PREREQUISITE: CURRENT APPROVAL TO USE CPI TECHNIQUES (BLUE CARD) REQUIRED.

Crisis Prevention Intervention (CPI) focuses on verbal de-escalation techniques and many other strategies to prevent violent or disruptive behavior in the classroom and allows the teacher to emphasize learning. This one-day, 6-hour, course is designed to "refresh" your CPI skills.

Successful completion of a written examination and demonstration of physical intervention skills are required to obtain a 1-year extension of your approval to use the techniques taught in the course.

Completion of a follow-up survey, 3 months after the course, is expected and allows participants to obtain two additional inservice points. All inservice points will be sent in after the three month survey has been sent to participants.

This refresher must be taken before the approval to use the techniques (blue card) has expired. You must be able to verify your "current status" in order to take this class. Please bring your current blue card to the training. If you are unable to locate your blue card, call or email the contact person for this training.

At least a 24-Hour cancellation is required if for some reason you are unable to attend the course. Please cancel your registration on signmup so that the participant slot is available for others. Non-attendance without a cancellation will be reported to schools.
Target Audience: All OCPS Employees
