Additional course information
The aim of UNMC501: Managing Confronting Behaviours in Educational Settings is to build the participant’s skills and self-efficacy for managing potentially stressful and confronting classroom environments and individual students in ways that are responsive to student well-being and safety.
In UNMC502: Managing Critical Incidents in Educational Settings participants will examine the philosophies and practical strategies for:
- the short-term de-escalation of potentially critical incidents involving challenging and confronting behaviour in classrooms or other educational settings and,
- long-term approaches for engaging students who regularly display challenging behaviour in classrooms or other educational settings.
Participants will have the opportunity to apply and practice their knowledge and skills in the areas listed above through the examination of scenarios that involve confronting and challenging behaviour.
