 Step UP! Foundational Training

This award winning (NSAPA GOLD 2010), evidence based foundational Step UP! training educates participants on the concepts of bystander intervention. Many times campus leaders become aware of the extent of problems only after a crisis occurs and educational programs come ‘after the fact’.  Based on proven research and theories, Step UP! takes a comprehensive, proactive, and prevention based approach and examines the underlying human, social and environmental influences that cause people to be inactive bystanders, while providing strategies and techniques for effective intervention.  This training will give you the framework for implementing a successful bystander intervention program on your campus or within your organization. Teaching people about the determinants of prosocial behavior makes us more aware of why we sometimes don’t help and, as a result, we are more likely to help in the future. *Minimum training – 90 minutes

 Step UP! Beyond the Basics – Advanced Training

BEYOND THE BASICS includes everything in the foundational training and goes more in depth by incorporating systems thinking habits, tools and techniques, taking Step UP! and bystander intervention to a new level. In collaboration with The Waters Center for Systems Thinking, we take a holistic approach. We look at the big picture and the collective forces that impact behavior. By doing so, we can expand intervention efforts, improve culture and build community. Until and unless we understand where and how various parts of the system intersect and interrelate, singular acts of intervention will continue to make a difference, but ultimately be insufficient for the most impactful change. Learn how to make your programs better and systems stronger. *Minimum training – 2 hours.
