Working in a variety of school settings, it’s important to have an understanding of how to support students who have dealt with trauma. Trauma is the #1 risk factor for young people to develop a mental illness. This workshop will (1) define trauma as a normal reaction to an abnormal situation, (2) teach educators ways to support students struggling to cope with past trauma, and (3) leave educators with an understanding on how to connect students with appropriate self-help, peer-to-peer, and professional resources.

Student privacy is a hot topic in today's culture and it is imperative that educators remain knowledgeable in how to protect their students' rights. Not doing so could result in personal and financial liabilities with long-lasting negative results. This webinar will help you review your responsibility as an educator under FERPA and will empower you with a confidence in knowing you are keeping your students' information safe. The webinar will be presented by Brent McNeal, Deputy General Counsel for FDOE.
