Event Details

This initial training is for individuals who have not been certified in Non-Violent Crisis Intervention or have allowed their certification to lapse beyond the expiration date shown on a previously-issued ®Blue Card from an NCI training. This program emphasizes early intervention techniques for preventing and/or managing disruptive behavior. Personal safety techniques, restraint and transport techniques are also included.  After receiving this certification, the annual 3-hour Foundations of Non-Violent Crisis Intervention refresher training is required to maintain certification.

Due to guidelines established by the Crisis Prevention Institute, Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8 is only able to train employees of school districts within the IU8 counties of Bedford, Blair, Cambria and Somerset.

Individuals must arrive on time, participate, stay the entire session, and pass the tests to receive certification.
