Adolescent development, cultural differences and risk factors are examined, and methods for teaching prevention are explored.

On-line resources include a variety of learning activities and video vignettes, and a printed manual will be provided to Learners. How is the training interactive?Each Learner is assigned a highly-knowledgeable Trainer, who provides individual and group instruction and guidance. Trainer and Learners can communicate and collaborate through: • Discussion groups • Essay responses submitted to the Trainer • Trainer feedback on questions/responses • Phone calls, if required How long is the training program?Preventing Child/Youth Maltreatment consists of 14 courses.
