Implementation of Evidence-based Practices into department operations is most effective when line staff understand the connections between assessment, case planning, and measuring outcomes. The purpose of the course is to eliminate tool bias and empower staff to create meaningful, collaborative case plans that take into consideration Risk, Needs, and Responsivity. Participants use real-world sample cases to apply case planning instruction and practice those skills the same day. Focus is placed on establishing and maintaining offender engagement, and the course explores specific goal-setting methods that work well with high-risk offenders specifically.
