Custom Designed Training

The School Safety Advocacy Council offers fully customized training solutions in order to address the specific school safety needs and learning objectives of our clients. We understand that every school and its school safety training needs are unique, and many communities today want a more highly customized training program for improving school safety, emergency management, school resource officer program, active shooter preparation and response, and school lock-downs. Our training specialists will evaluate your training needs and design a course or workshop specifically for your organization and staff.

Starting with conversations between our training specialists and your key stakeholders, we will build your training from the ground up. We’ll work to identify and understand your training objectives and goals. From there, we’ll select the specific skills, strategies and the appropriate delivery style to accomplish the objectives, develop the content, incorporate your culture, design practical exercises for active participation and provide follow-up coaching.

STEP 1: ANALYSIS OF NEEDS

Your training specialist will guide you every step of the way to build a successful training experience for you, your participants and your organization! Time frames and deadlines…your organization’s culture…details about the participants…delivery style…and, most importantly, the training outcome you desire are all an integral part of this process.

STEP 2: IDENTIFY TOPICS AND CONTENT

Based on your school safety needs and objectives, our team will develop a training solution inclusive of the appropriate training topics and content.

STEP 3: DEVELOP CUSTOM CONTENT

Our team of instructional designers will customize a school safety program by developing customized content, examples, exercises and activities specifically for your agency or district.

STEP 4: DELIVERY

Our certified trainer(s) will deliver an interactive training experience that will exceed your school safety goals and objectives. Depending on the delivery style identified as the best choice for your staff, your training program is maximized for retention by including both traditional and experiential learning models. Incorporating small and large group activities, case studies, role-plays and interactive exercises presented by one of our skilled and dynamic trainers, you can count on a program that educates and inspires your participants while meeting your important school safety goals.

STEP 5: FOLLOW-UP

We conduct satisfaction and quality assessments at the close of each training day to ensure we meet your objectives. Should you feel something’s been missed, we’ll work until we’ve matched your expectations and needs.


Train-the-Trainer Program

Let our trainers train your trainers! Our flexible and client-focused approach will provide your organization with the highest-impact train-the-trainer solution. Most districts and agencies have in-house professional training staff on board to deliver training but don’t have the time to evaluate, initiate and develop all of the materials required. We recognize your in-house trainers are experts when it comes to understanding your organization, mission, culture and employees the best! Since they know best how to improve the safety and capabilities of your educational environments, our focus is to provide a flexible solution in order to deliver a high-impact, results-oriented school safety training program.

Our Train-the-Trainer Certification will ensure that your trainers…

– Understand the background and theory behind the content
– Effectively communicate key messages related to course materials
– Understand and utilize interactive/experiential delivery techniques properly
– Feel comfortable managing specific topics related to course material
