Managing School Crises

This training is designed to prepare school administrators and educators for the inevitable crises that occur within schools or affect those in schools. It addresses the three most common phases of a crisis: pre-crisis planning, acute crisis response, and post-crisis activities. Special attention is given to the most common pitfalls, particularly those that pose significant liability risks for school personnel during crisis response activities. Participants will be introduced to the CISM framework and specific intervention techniques that can be easily applied in a school setting. These techniques are research-based and widely recognized for their effectiveness. Through multiple group activities, participants will explore the elements of effective crisis management.
