Description:
THIS CPI REFRESHER CLASS IS OPEN TO EMPLOYEES OF HVED AND HVED MEMBER SCHOOL DISTRICTS. THIS WILL BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 27TH, 2025 FROM 9AM-1PM AT PEM SCHOOL DISTRICT
To attend a CPI Refresher class, you must have current CPI certification.
Intended audience:
Those of you who have been trained in Nonviolent Crisis Intervention during SY 23-24 will have the opportunity to refresh your skills by attending this training. This training will meet CPI requirements. At this training you will revisit practices of Non-Violent Crisis Intervention by reviewing initial training skills, participating in lecture/discussion, reviewing and demonstrating personal safety techniques and CPI restraints, and successfully completing a post test.
This CPI training will renew your knowledge and confidence when faced with a student whose behavior is escalating towards a crisis. Your focus on the student’s behavior relative to the CPI Crisis Development Model, facilitates understanding the student’s verbal and nonverbal behaviors proactively, will assist in deescalating the crisis, reducing the fears and anxieties of the students and staff involved, while ensuring the care, welfare, safety and security of all involved.
Additionally, on August 1, 2011 Minnesota Statute 124A.0942 became effective. In addition to the CPI refresher requirements, this statute REQUIRES that “staff that use restrictive procedures” (i.e., restraint or seclusion) “shall complete training….”. It further outlines training requirements that will now be met during scheduled CPI trainings. Any districts intending to use restraint or seclusion with students must have their team members trained prior to implementing these therapeutic interventions.
Due to constraints imposed by the Crisis Prevention Institute and to ensure effectiveness and safety, this training will be limited to 40 participants. Also, we must have a minimum of 12 participants or this training will be canceled.
