Description: This update is a two-day program for current TCI certified trainers. The update provides materials designed to assist certified TCI trainers in designing and implementing effective and agency specific TCI refresher training to enhance individual and organization performance. Topics include: the difference between primary training and refresher training; factors that facilitate skill transfer and maintenance; an effective format for presenting TCI materials using the model of discussion, demonstration, and practice; and assessing, designing, delivering, and evaluating refresher training. Participants will be asked to present activities appropriate for refresher training during this update. In advance of the update, participants will be asked to bring their activity guides and sample critical incidents (with all personally identifying information deleted) for review and use during the practice activities.
An emphasis is placed on advancing the skill development of the participants in the areas of the early interventions strategies, crisis co-regulation, Life Space Interview (LSI), physical skills, and risk assessment
