Students will be provided with instruction through a PowerPoint presentation which includes with multiple case studies from previously documented critical incidents involving “Persons in Crisis”. In addition to the classroom presentation, students will be placed in multiple role-playing scenarios that are based on commonly encountered critical incidents which involve “Persons in Crisis”.

ICAT takes the essential building blocks of critical thinking, crisis intervention, communications, and tactics, and puts them together in an integrated approach to training.
