De-Escalation Strategies and Skills Practice -Â
Participants in this training gain foundational knowledge about the escalation cycle and strategies to interrupt escalation. Our trained actors simulate an array of student personalities displaying common classroom misbehaviors, providing participants the opportunity to practice de-escalation techniques in a real-time simulator. Facilitators and participants are engaged in giving each other feedback, peer support, and actionable coaching to empower participants to immediately incorporate new skills into their teaching repertoire. This training is focused on observing and recognizing the brain state (Regulated, Emotional, Dysregulated) of the student and using verbal and non-verbal skills and techniques matched to the regulation state to address, intervene, and respond supportively to students. This training does not present restraint or any other physical intervention techniques.
