Trauma exacts a tremendous toll in the workplace, costing individuals, managers and organizations in a myriad of ways.
How to provide the best support for the person in trauma.
In order to be there for others, you must first take care of own needs. But what does really mean?
The way we support our employees, co-workers, clients, and the communities we serve during times of trauma will have a long-lasting effect on their healing and our relationship with them. Unfortunately, responding well during challenging times is not always easy.
We don’t know what to say and worry that we’ll overstep boundaries. We rush through the interaction or avoid acknowledging the challenge altogether.
This training provides practical advice on how to support those in trauma and distress in the workplace while protecting yourself from compassion fatigue and not running afoul of legal obligations.

We hear you. Only you know about the demands of your job or if you can “juggle” the demands of work, family, and school. That said, online courses are a great way to get the knowledge you need for career growth, without being tied down to a specific schedule, being out of the office for days at a time, or burdened by the expense of high priced tuition or travel costs. Split up into bite sized components, each course section can be completed over a lunch break in a week’s time – sometimes less. And don’t worry: if life gets in the way, you’ll have a whole year to complete the lessons on your own schedule.
We have tested the course using Chrome, Safari, and Microsoft Edge. The Learning Management System does not work well with Firefox.
