Evidence-Based Approaches to Combat Bullying in Schools: Strategies and Measures
Learn evidence-based strategies to effectively combat bullying in schools. This course explores practical measures and interventions to create a safer, more inclusive educational environment.
About this course
Recent tragic events have brought bullying to the forefront, especially cyber bullying. With the rise of school-based violence and/or student suicide, which bullying has been associated with, it is no surprise that there is a national focus on bullying in order to understand and prevent it. Specifically, The White House Conference on Bullying in 2013 led to the development of resources for victims, school-based interventions, relevant research and the formation of a multi-multidisciplinary approach to reduce bullying and its harmful trajectory. Sociological, ecological and psychological variables that increase the risk of bullying and victim behaviors are complex, but we are beginning to have a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms that drive and maintain this behavior. This online CE course for mental health professionals focuses on school-based bullying, its prevalence, the types of bullying, the long-term effects on bullies and victims, evidence-based predictors for bullying and/or victim behaviors, as well as clinical interventions and prevention programs for use with children on either side of this unfortunate equation.
