After recently finishing MOAB and Cornell's Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) trainings as a child fellow, I found them great (TCI more than MOAB) and wish I'd had them in adult training. What do others get in their programs? Did you find them useful?

I had CPI training.

Crisis Prevention Intervention training.

I think it was useful. I actually had to push the program into adopting it--well after 2 years of bringing it up they caved it. I told the program it was to their own liability advantage to have it since once in awhile, on the involunatry unit & the crisis ER center, a patient gets agitated. The staff had the training but the residents didn't because we were being managed by 2 separate entities. If a resident got attacked & it went to court, a great plaintiff question to the hospital would be, "so the hospital thinks its justified to have CPI training, why didn't the residency program give the same?"

Its not martial arts, but they teach some defensive maneuvers, and ways to avoid physical crisis.
