Room 104

A course in de-escalation, designed to enhance the ability of an individual who desires to prevent and protect themselves or others from a violent encounter. Although it is not a guarantee that de-escalation will prevent violence. It is the second step (situational awareness being the first) in being able to give a person the confidence and ability in having a professional approach to respond appropriately. This is a proactive and reactive course designed to help individuals adapt to situations that require verbal and non verbal de-escalation as an option.
