Consultation and Training for Schools and Therapeutic Facilities

Dr. Greene and his colleagues offer a variety of virtual and on-site training options on the CPS model. Contact us if you’d like to discuss the possibilities.

Half and Full-Day Workshops

If your staff are relatively new to the CPS model, a half- or full-day workshop will provide a general overview of the CPS model (key themes, use of assessment instrumentation, and solving problems collaboratively), and can be provided either on-site or by webinar.

Two-Day Training

A two-day training provides a more intensive overview of the CPS model. The addition of the second day allows more time for video examples, practice, processing, discussion, and questions. These trainings are available either on-site or virtually.

Proficiency Trainings

If your school or treatment facility has already had some exposure to the CPS model – either through a training or through one of Dr. Greene’s books – and you want to take the next step, you’ll probably be interested in our 6-week plunge and 10-week proficiency trainings. With both options, a Lives in the Balance trainer will work virtually with a “core group” of your staff on a weekly basis. Staff submit and receive feedback on work samples they submit of the assessment tool of the CPS model (the Assessment of Skills and Unsolved Problems) and the problem-solving process (Plan B). These trainings can be focused on transforming the disciplinary culture of a school or treatment facility, or more specifically on reducing or eliminating the use of restraint and seclusion. Trainings are available in English, Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, and French.
