This course is designed for anyone who desires to increase their knowledge of individual (one-on-one) crisis intervention techniques in the eyes of Law Enforcement, Chaplaincy, Clergy, Business & Industry, Disaster Response, Education, Emergency Services, Employee Assistance, Healthcare, Homeland Security, Mental Health, Military, Spiritual Care, and Traumatic Stress.
