De-Escalation: Strategies for Best Possible Outcomes
This training is registered as, “Agency Elected Continuing Professional Education (CPE).”
De-escalation is a word that is frequently discussed by community members, politicians, and the media, but is rarely defined and often misunderstood. This course empowers participants to have intelligent, evidence-informed conversations with the public and provides valuable tools for engaging with people in crisis. Not all situations can be ‘de-escalated,’ but this course focuses on tools to help achieve the best possible outcomes. Through guided discussions, small group exercises and practical tools, participants will:
- Explain the truths of de-escalation to members of the public
- Learn to self-regulate their emotions in high-stress environments
- Explore the foundational elements of all human mental functions (thoughts, emotions, behaviors)
- Learn effective tools for dealing with persons in crisis
- Explore response tactics for best possible outcomes
Who should attend? This course is designed for sworn personnel, correctional officers, dispatchers, trainers, supervisors, and investigators.
