We have archived the former training, so while records of completion are still available from past participants, individuals can no longer register for the older training.
What is new in the training?
Among many things, the training has updated information on:
- Room clears (SF 2360 legislation passed in June 2020)
- New changes in the rules from November 2020
- Seclusion room requirements as well as requirements for supervision of students
- Debriefing meetings and notification requirements
- Time limitations for seclusion and restraint, and the process to extend time if more is needed
The new requirements go into effect Jan. 20. The law states that employees engaging in seclusion or restraint have been trained prior to engaging. Thus, we recommend employees taking the training before Jan. 20, especially those with a higher likelihood of engaging in seclusion or restraint.
Keep in mind that incident documentation requires districts to identify when individuals involved in the seclusion or restraint were last trained. With the AEA Learning Online training system, you will be able to access that information.
How long does the training last?
While the standard disclaimer of text-based trainings vary depending on reading speed applies, we rate the training to take 45 minutes in length. As part of the training, we will link out to additional materials and videos which are optional.
A large thank you goes out to Ahlers' Law Firm (Des Moines), who was instrumental in the revisions and update for the training. For additional questions regarding the training itself, please contact Evan Abbey.
