Online training for 603 CMR 46.00 The Prevention of Physical Restraint and Requirements if Used
This training is intended for school and district use with small groups or individuals allowing for direct instruction to school personnel about the regulatory requirements in the recently revised regulations under 603 CMR 46.00 Prevention of Physical Restraint and Requirements if Used. The training guides the user through the requirements of these regulations and can be used to partially meet the requirements of orientation for new personnel during the course of the year, as well as for initial orientation each year. Please note, however, that this training does not include all required elements of training. Additional time will be necessary to orient individuals to program and district policies in this area. The Department recommends individual use or use in groups of 3-4 people. This training is not meant to be used as the sole method of training for large groups, although it can be of assistance in such trainings. If a district uses the training, it must supplement the information provided to ensure that all requirements of annual training are met.
