Prevention and Support gives the Direct Support Professional (DSP) tools on how to de-escalate interfering conduct. The DSP will gain knowledge about how to better understand what the person supported may be communicating with their behavior. The student will learn why it’s important to find out the function of a person’s behavior so a new replacement skill can be taught. Finally, if all least intrusive interventions have failed and imminent danger is present, the student will learn how to safely apply an emergency physical intervention technique.

Thank You for Today’s Powerful Lesson
Oct 21, 2025
Today’s prevention and support class with Amanda was truly an eye-opening experience. Going into it, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, but I left not only with a clear and thorough understanding of the material, but also with a brand-new perspective that has the potential to impact how I view life as a whole. Amanda’s teaching style is phenomenal, she has a unique way of breaking things down and making every topic easy to understand. The class was highly engaging, extremely productive, and full of valuable lessons. I felt connected to the material from start to finish, and her approach allowed everything to really click for me. I’m genuinely grateful for the time, effort, and passion she puts into teaching. Amanda turned what I expected to be just another class into an experience that taught me far more than the curriculum alone. I truly appreciate her as a teacher and the lasting lessons I walked away with today.

A Truly Valuable Learning Experience
Oct 5, 2025
I thoroughly enjoyed the class. Amanda is exceptional at what she does—knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about the subject. Although the class was eight hours long, her dynamic teaching style made the time fly by. It was both informative and enjoyable from start to finish.

Instructor was cool but y'all let a bunch of people in late when last time I tried to go it was locked after 20 minutes. Wasted my entire morning and $65 all because of y'all when clearly it's NOT a "state mandated" anything.

Amanda is highly personable and very knowledgeable! This is my first time attending her class, and she made it very engaging! I was hesitant at first to perform the different techniques, but when she assured everyone that no one would get hurt while practicing them, I felt much more at ease. It turned out to be lots of fun! She will also inform you which sections to pay attention to when it's time to take the written test. I will definitely renew my certification with her after three years.
