(LegalLaw247.com, November 16, 2011 ) Milwaukee, Wis. A group of professional communications trainers from around the U.S. who completed an intensive training weekend say they are well prepared to apply Verbal Defense & Influence both at home and at work.
While covering changes to curriculum and teachings strategies, the weekend training also showcased the expansion of this professional methodology beyond its law enforcement roots.
My kids will be flabbergasted, said one participant, a detective from New York. These Five Universal Truths are the rules of the house now.
The Five Universal Truths are Verbal Defense & Influence ground rules for treating others with respect and dignity.
Were starting to bring civility back, said Joe Whiten of Gateway Technical College, who taught a session on utilizing these tactics among educators.
Participants attended sessions on a variety of topics, such as:
Learning how to engage bystanders
Structuring positive youth interactions
Effective communications with persons along the autism spectrum
Applying these strategies for tackling societal problems such as stopping youth bullying, workplace bullying and preventing sexual violence.
The crisis communication methodology, which has driven law enforcement protocol for 28 years, has expanded its applications and revamped many teaching procedures, necessitating the need for recertification. The conference, held in Milwaukee, was one in a series of recertification workshops that will be held throughout the country.
All instructors who have been previously trained must be recertified by the end of 2012. To view the full training calendar visit . http://verbaldefenseandinfluence.com/training-calendar.
