Department of Education at Emory & Henry Offers New Program for Trauma-Informed Care Training

Posted

The Emory & Henry Department of Education is now offering a new program to develop resilient schools through trauma-informed care in the classroom for school professionals and licensure recertification, available online now.

Filmed in front of a live audience, the 15 continuing education units (CEUs) that make up the “Resilient Schools: A Toolkit Creating Trauma-Informed School Professionals” program are available online for asynchronous instruction now. The program, led by education expert Becky Haas, teaches education professionals and aspiring educators to invest in their students through trauma-informed practices, including identifying and addressing traumatic stress and understanding how trauma impacts both learning and student behavior.

International advocate and trainer on developing and implementing a trauma-informed approach, Becky Haas pioneered the creation of trauma-informed communities and teaching programs. Her body of work centers the region and affects healthcare and education throughout Northeast Tenn. and Southwest Va. Haas hosted the eight learning modules available in “Resilient Schools: A Toolkit Creating Trauma-Informed for School Professionals,” sharing unique knowledge, including the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study.

Today’s educators need the training to support modern trauma-informed practices in the classroom, including safety and trust. Emory & Henry College provides targeted and convenient professional development to offer tools to create trauma-informed school communities through the program that allows education professionals to learn at their own pace over the course of three months from their purchase of the program.

To learn more about education programs including “Resilient Schools: A Toolkit Creating Trauma-Informed for School Professionals,” contact Assistant Professor of Education Dr. Sandy Frederick at sfrederick@ehc.edu or visit http://www.ehc.edu/traumainformedcare to sign up for the program.
