CPI Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training Program Recertification
This training is intended as a team response program for personnel who work with students directly. If your staff has been trained more than one year ago, the Crisis Prevention Institute recommends training to renew and refresh skills. If your staff has changes, and individuals who were initially trained as a team have left or changed assignments, this is a good time to build the group understanding of the current team. Districts are encouraged to send the same group that was trained as a team initially whenever possible.
