The RAID® course is an excitingly positive approach to working with disturbed and challenging behavior, to eradicate it at source. It is a leading positive approach for working with disturbed and challenging behavior and over 20,000 professionals have attended it.
It is the only challenging behavior training that is APT-accredited and also gives you access to APT’s relevant downloadable resources for use post-course. The course is available for teams and individuals and can be attended face-to-face or online - or you or your colleagues can be trained to roll out the course in your organization under license. This course can also be completed as part of The APT Diploma in Psychological Therapies.
The 3-day RAID® course is a leading approach for tackling disturbed and challenging behavior at source: over 20,000 professionals have attended it. It is a comprehensive system which teaches professionals a philosophy and practice not only to deal with disturbed and challenging behavior when it occurs, but also to prevent it by nurturing positive behavior targetted to displace the disturbed and challenging behavior. Staff feel pleased to share a unified system and to know what they are doing and why they are doing it, while clients delight in a relentlessly positive and empowering approach.
As well as providing training in the RAID® approach, APT gives annual awards for excellent work with disturbed and challenging behavior, and also recognizes RAID® Centres of Excellence
