90-Minute Recording of a Video Online Seminar • Originally Broadcast August 24, 2009 • $279

Mandated therapy following a student assessment is a troubling concept for many counselors. They believe strongly that therapy and counseling should always be voluntary, not coerced.

At the same time, everyone understands that at-risk students can’t simply be ignored; an appropriate response is essential.

Is there a way to reconcile the need for action with the ethical concerns of counseling staff?

Brian Van Brunt, Ed.D., and Jason Ebbeling, Esq., believe there is. They propose a mandated education program as an alternative–and they’ll outline the details in this seminar.

In Instead of Mandated Therapy: Mandated Educational Programming, Dr. Van Brunt and Mr. Ebbeling discuss how to create programming similar to that offered for students who violate alcohol policy, but built around the issues of suicidal behavior, aggressive actions, and domestic violence behavior. In their 90-minute video presentation, they’ll explain:

• How to integrate educational programming into existing threat-assessment programs.
• How to create a strong program partnership between counseling and judicial affairs.
• How to develop short-, medium- and long-term formats tailored to the specific needs of referrers.
• What to include in each program session, for each format length.
• How to select and train the right people to lead sessions.
• What the legal implications of educational programming are for your institution.
• And much more.

An excellent value … and your colleagues can attend free!
The CD of this seminar is a modest $279. And here’s even better news: The fee applies per CD, not per person. That means you can invite your colleagues to join you for the presentation … without spending another dime! It’s a chance to bring together everyone concerned with the issue of at-risk students. Be sure to project it into a facility large enough to accommodate your group. It’s a great budget-stretcher–especially important in these difficult economic times.

Who will benefit from this seminar
• Judicial affairs staff
• Residential life staff
• Deans of student life
• VPs of student affairs
• Police and law enforcement
• Counseling center directors/staff

An ethical, compassionate and effective response to the needs of at-risk students is an achievable goal. Learn more in this informative seminar!
