CPI Training Announcements for 2021-22 School Year

We have learned many things throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, with one of those being how to provide CPI training in the most efficient manner. When school resumes in the Fall, we know your priority is going to continue to be to have educators in the classroom, supporting children/youth; likewise, our agency’s priority is to have our staff in buildings, supporting your educators, children and youth. Highlights of CPI training in the next academic year include:

• Heartland AEA will continue with the blended learning option for CPI Initial (New) and Re-training (Refresher) certification for the 2021-22 school year.
• We continue to request that districts prioritize those staff with the highest level of risk.
• We have developed asynchronous learning options on De-Escalation / Verbal Intervention in 15, 30, and 60-minute increments
• We are asking that CPI training continue to occur within the district and/or be regionally-hosted.

Please refer to the CPI Training Information for the 2021-22 School Year for complete details.
