This on-demand training program on Violence Risk/ Threat Assessment Case Illustrations: Workplace is presented by Dr. Brianne Layden, PhD in partnership with Protect International Risk and Safety Services.

Case Illustrations are one of the most powerful ways to demonstrate the use of a tool for assessing and managing violence risk and how it can be implemented in practice. This program focuses on the use of the Guidelines for Stalking Assessment and Management (SAM) to assess and manage risk for stalking in the workplace. The case illustrations highlight both promising practices and challenging issues related to the use of structured professional judgment guidelines in this sector (e.g., considering the definition of stalking and harassment, implementing tactics related to management strategies).

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this program you will be able to:

  • Describe an overview of the use of the SAM through case illustrations

  • Describe structured professional judgement guidelines for the assessment and management of risk for stalking

  • Describe promising practices and challenging issues related to the use of structured professional judgment guidelines in workplaces
