Resident Assistant Training Train-the-Trainer
 

The R.A. is often the most important representative of the university in the life of a campus resident. Universities have always provided quality training to the RA’s in working with the day-to-day issues that affect their hall members. This training is augmented by Keys RA Training, which provides Trainers of R.A. essentials in dealing with the ever increasing emotional issues that arise in the hall: Anger Management, Early Warning Signs and Critical Disorders.

Anger Management/De-escalation

This teaches the RA how to recognize anger as it builds and provides him or her the means to de-escalate that anger without over reacting and causing more problems.

Identification of the Potentially Dangerous Student

Violence is almost always preceded by Early Warning Signs that the RA can be taught to identify. Once identified, the RA is equipped to take appropriate action or to refer the individual to a source of help.

Critical Disorders

These disorders, that every RA may expect to encounter,  include Suicide, Eating Disorders, Depression, Anxiety and Stress. 

This Train-the-Trainer Model will ultimately equip the RA to recognize these emotional issues so that the hall member can receive professional help early and prevent injury or withdrawal from school. When trained by Trainers the RA will use these same skills to prevent personal burnout by being able to identify these traits within themselves and knowing what to do about it.

Two Day - Train-the-Trainer

 

Keys announces the most anticipated, relevant and requested National Pilot Training Program as outlined in the Columbine Report, namely the

Train-the-Trainers: Certification Training - Assessing the Potentially Dangerous Student (PDS).

 

Currently Keys has required their Mental Health Violence Prevention Experts to conduct this one-of-a-kind training.  Due to the increasing demand on Keys staff to train individuals in the Assessing of the PDS, Keys is offering this two day Train-the-trainer event to selected, qualified individuals.

 

Click here to Register for training.

 

This is the most essential training available to schools and youth workers today. With the ever increasing frequency of school shootings, it is time that we do something about it. Building upon National Level research by the Department of Education, Office of Juvenile Justice, the FBI, the Secret Service and others, Keys' has developed a most unique approach to the detection and prevention of School Violence. It looks at "Why" we miss these students, "What" to do to identify them, and "How" to provide help for them.  There is an emphasis on identification, assessment and training of early and imminent warning signs of the PDS. This training provides schools a component of the Risk Assessment Team Model that meets the guidelines of the Commission Report on Columbine for effectively identifying students who may need immediate help. Unlike training seminars that merely provide theory and information, this training will produce Certification and a Train-the-Trainer Model for instituting/using the Keys To Safe Schools.com Assessment Tool, a unique device that identifies students in need of help. But schools should not stop with training Assessment Teams but should take the next step and provide an in-service for ALL staff in identification of the Potentially Dangerous Students.

One day Facilitator Training

Learn to spot anger before it boils over into an uncontrolled outburst.  Learn to align energy and redirect rather than oppose.  This training is based on National Research and a must training for those that work with children, adolescents and young adults. It is a "practical" training that teaches how to recognize anger, manage anger and de-escalate volatile situations in the classroom. It trains the Facilitator three levels of controlling anger and that is to first control themselves, then control the situation, and finally to control the student. This training introduces Huan Ju, The Art of Redirection. It provides physical and non-physical means to stop or break up a fight with minimal risk to all involved. The techniques taught protect the dignity of the combatants, which minimizes the probability of retaliation or recurrence.  The unique character of this system is that it is NOT pain inducing, it maintains dignity, it is geared toward students in school rather than adults in residential settings a - unlike other trainings methods.

Behavioral Management of Section 504 & Special Ed Students  Learn more

 

This training will focus on Section 504 of the IDEA and Special Education Students.  The training will deal with aspects surrounding management of students exhibiting behavioral or severe behavioral issues and then how to serve that student.  The training relies on the Positive Behavioral Support approach to managing severe behavior.  Topics covered include:

Critical Diagnostic Information

It is imperative that the Administrative team and others have specific information in advance of any incidents.  This is critical to effecting positive change in that appropriate measures should be taken with these students, immediately following an incident.   Information required includes: diagnoses, possible exhibiting behaviors and preliminary plans to deal with the student's behavior.

Effective Behavioral Planning

This procedure guides participants through the process of recognizing the presenting behaviors that are tied to a disorder.  Participants will practice effective behavioral plan writing and development which will affect behavioral change.  Although missed by many, effective behavioral planning must include the parent(s)/guardian(s)' as part of that student's success.

Carrying it to Conclusion

Effective communication of the progress or setbacks with the Team, including the parent(s)/guardian(s), is essential.  It is imperative that the parent(s)/ guardian(s) vested with responsibility in the success of the plan and  that they report to the team on their progress with the student during non-school hours. Likewise, it is important that the school team members report to the parent on the student's progress at school.  This can be accomplished through a unique Behavioral Assessment Tool, which will report the student's progress and assess their behavior.

 

This training will equip participants to recognize Critical Diagnostic information, develop Effective Behavioral Plans and carry this process to an appropriate outcome.

School students have reported an increase in bullying with severe consequences to themselves and their schools. As if this were not enough, bullying has been identified in a national study as a factor in the recent school shootings. At Columbine a group of school athletes bullied the two boys who later became shooters. Almost any group in anyone's school could be the "bullies" and and it would be accurate at some point in time. Bullying can be physical, emotional or social. Keys' Bullying Program offers four modules to fully address the different aspects of this complex issue.  These are:
 

  1. The Victim: How to handle being bullied by a peer.

  2. The Bully: How to identify the need for bullying and better ways to meet that need.

  3. The School: How to deal with both sides of bullying in a productive manner.

  4. The Parent: How to recognize signs that your child is being bullied, how to help your child cope with bullies and how to interact with the school about a bullying situation.
