All Staff Preparedness
All staff
Everybody ready
Resources on hand 24/7
What’s Included
The All Staff Preparedness video series includes videos on topics most critical for responding to the most common kinds of crises schools face. Designed to be flexible in their use, you’re in the driver’s seat:
- Choose what is most needed and slip these into existing staff or departmental meetings or for use on PDF days
- Suggest that staff all view a video on their own time with an option of discussing saient points at a proposed time or simply letting each staff member find what is helpful for themselves
- Appraise staff of their access to the videos and let staff view at will.
This can be purchased as a stand-alone resource or is included in the CMI Comprehensive Crisis Training package.
Increased Staff Confidence
Staff will have peace of mind and teachers will know how to prevent small crisis from cascading into larger ones.
Solid Guidelines
Staff will be able to collect practical guidelines for a variety of incidents that may occur in the classroom, the school, or the community at large.
5-Minute Training Videos
Each video is sharply targeted on one particular topic, so each session is laser-focused.
Interactive Skill-Building
Each video has an optional small group activity to take knowledge into hands-on skills. Just watching the video brings knowledge; adding the activities builds skills.
Enhanced Trust in School
Students gain trust as teachers feel greater comfort being emotionally available and students’ needs are met.
Decreased Stress
No one will have to wonder, “What if…” because they know there’s already a clear plan of action ready to go when needed.
Handouts for Easy Reference
Each video has a handout that outlines the basic principles of each topic, and often include suggested scripts for staff to use or actions to take.
Available On-Demand
Because these videos are pre-recorded, they easily fit into your staff’s schedule, not ours.

Learn by Doing
Each video comes with small group activities to practice the principles presented.
Your staff won’t just sit and watch instructional videos. Each and every video lesson allows staff to work together to practice what they’ve learned in a very practical, hands-on fashion.
Build Personalized Guidelines
While each and every lesson is taught based on 40 years of experience, your school is unique.
Through handouts and activities, your staff will build a variety of crisis guidelines that meet the specific needs of your building.
Reduce Stress
When you have a specific, workable plan in place, you can move forward with confidence.
Knowing you can handle whatever comes your way lifts a heavy burden off everyone’s shoulders. By the end of this course, your staff will have identified strengths, assigned roles, and mapped out a working plan.

Every year we focus on a different area to further develop or revisit as a part of our Safe Schools preparation using these resources.
The set up of the materials allows you flexibility in delivering this important professional development. The videos and activities can be embedded into team meetings or staff meetings and can be used in a variety of settings.
