TechValidate Research on Crisis Prevention Institute

Introduction

This case study of Telecare Corporation is based on a August 2015 survey of Crisis Prevention Institute customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“CPI improved staff de-escalation skills, improved overall safety, and has become ingrained in our training.”

“The training instructors successfully communicate the culture, philosophy, and application of the program. The ongoing support, online materials, videos, and other educational materials keep the skills fresh and evolving.”
