10 Key Features of Joffe Academy's Workplace Violence Prevention Course for Schools

At Joffe, we recognize the importance of proactive measures to prevent workplace violence in schools. That's why we're excited to introduce our Workplace Violence Prevention Course, specifically designed for schools in a guided train-the-trainer model style learning opportunity. This comprehensive course equips HR professionals, Heads of School, Operations Leaders, Safety Committee Facilitators, and other stakeholders with the knowledge and resources needed to ensure compliance with California SB 553 and create a safer school environment. Here are 10 key features of our Joffe Workplace Violence Prevention Course that make it a valuable investment for schools.

1. Tailored for Schools: Our Workplace Violence Prevention Course goes beyond generic strategies by delving into specific challenges and scenarios that schools face. We provide targeted examples, strategies, and solutions that are directly applicable to the school environment, ensuring that participants gain practical knowledge they can implement immediately.
2. Train-the-Trainer Model: Unlike traditional courses where each participant pays individually, our model allows schools to purchase the course once, making it cost-effective and accessible for all stakeholders. This means that once a school invests in our course, they can use it to train multiple staff members, creating a ripple effect of knowledge and preparedness throughout the institution.
3. Legal Compliance: Compliance with California SB 553 is a top priority. Our course is meticulously designed to meet all legal requirements outlined by SB 553, ensuring that schools are fully compliant by the July 1, 2024 deadline. We provide the necessary resources, guidelines, and updates to navigate the complexities of workplace violence prevention legislation effectively.
4. Comprehensive Content: From foundational concepts to advanced strategies, our course covers an array of topics relevant to workplace violence prevention in schools. Participants, whether they are HR professionals or Safety Committee Facilitators, gain a deep understanding of best practices, policies, and procedures to create a safer environment for everyone.
5. Self-Paced Learning:. With approximately one  hour worth of course content, our self-paced learning experience allows participants to study at their convenience, accommodating busy schedules and varying learning styles.
6. Valuable Resources: We provide an array of resources to support schools in their implementation of workplace violence prevention strategies. These resources include comprehensive slide decks, a concise one-pager summarizing key points, Cal/Osha’s customizable template for action plans, and more.
7. Interactive Elements: Our course goes beyond passive learning by incorporating interactive elements. Participants engage with thought-provoking questions, case studies, and scenarios that prompt critical thinking and collaboration.
8. Customization: Recognizing that each school is unique, we emphasize customization in our training sessions. Schools can personalize the content by adding school-specific information, real-life examples, and tailored strategies.
9. Continued Access: Participants have continued access to course materials, updates, and resources throughout the school year. This continuous learning approach enables reinforcement of key concepts, staying updated on best practices, and adapting strategies as needed to address evolving challenges.
10. Consulting Services: For schools seeking a deeper level of personalization and support, our consulting services offer tailored solutions. Our experienced consultants work closely with schools to assess their unique needs, provide expert guidance, and ensure full compliance with workplace violence prevention strategies.
