VIOLENCE RISK &
THREAT ASSESSMENT
Dr. Brian Van Brunt is an internationally recognized expert in behavioral intervention, threat assessment and mental illness and the former President and lead content expert for the National Association for Behavioral Intervention and Threat Assessment (NABITA). Over the decades, he has learned the importance of offering uniquely tailored trainings to better support the needs of each community they trained and consulted with, both virtually and on the road.
At DPrep Safety, we assembled a team of master trainers who provide high-quality, effective virtual and in-person trainings at a reasonable price point. They bring decades of subject matter expertise in diversity, equity and inclusion, legal reviews, counseling, law enforcement, conduct/discipline, and human resources.
Our first question to a new community partner is always, “Help us understand your unique needs and what resources we can bring to support, train and advise your community.” At DPrep Safety, we prioritize our quality expert systems, training, and consulting reviews over profit margins. Our services are built to bring our community partners lasting change, rather than a one-and-done engagement.

-
Understand the threat assessment process from the first concern to the final, comprehensive report
-
Gather information accurately and assess the risk based on interaction of risk and protective factors
-
Learn how to write an accurate, timely and meaningful report for decision makers
This live, online certification course addresses violence risk and threat assessment in workplaces, schools, colleges, and universities. This course will cover all aspects of threat assessment, including intake and interviewing skills, assessing written threats, and developing risk mitigation plans.
We review foundational concepts in violence risk and threat assessment, provide practical guidance on interviewing skills for gathering information from the person being assessed, and outline how to write a report that offers useful, accessible guidance to the referral source.
The class will use case studies to teach core concepts and allow time for interactive discussion and reflection. These case studies will address universal threat assessment concepts and draw on workplace and college settings. Supplemental resources, including research articles, checklists, informational one-sheets, discussion questions, and training exercises, will be provided.
This training includes one-year access to our online triage and threat assessment tools. These research-based expert systems reduce bias, ensure consistency, and address subjectivity in information gathering and decision-making.
The Pathways Triage Tool assesses student behavior to determine the risk level to both the student and the community. When indicated, Pathways will recommend further assessment for suicide or violence risk.
The DarkFox Violence Risk Assessment Tool is an online expert system that collects and organizes data related to a potential violence risk. The information shared is used to develop a unique threat management plan, supported by research from the fields of psychology, criminology, threat assessment, and law enforcement.

We provide dinner on the first night for in-person attendees based on local New Orleans restaurants and cuisine. For example, one of our local instructors cooked a crab and shrimp boil for participants during our first session, and coffee and beignets were plentiful.
We believe in this training approach, even though it is a bit more costly than a simple tabletop exercise or walking people through a case study. The individual interview experiences and opportunities to watch others approach their interviews in various ways offer a level of feedback you just don’t get from other conferences and trainings.

Addressing Disruptive and Dangerous Behavior
This workshop offers research-based, practical advice for faculty and staff to better manage crisis scenarios that develop related to irritability, financial stress, mental illness emergencies, relationship difficulties, and other stressors. Instruction draws from the fields of psychology and law enforcement, teaching techniques including motivational interviewing, rapport building, and content-process focus.
Addressing Criminal and Student Conduct Complaints
School resource officers (SROs), campus safety officers, and law enforcement respond to both complaints and concerns with criminal implications and those limited to school or college conduct and discipline policy violations (non-criminal). SROs and campus police should have a clear understanding and accompanying procedures for responding to both criminal and non-criminal matters that impact the school climate. Successful SRO and campus safety programs adopt a continuous education process for the school community to reduce conflict and avoid surprises. This understanding and education within the school is essential to the development of formal and informal memoranda of understanding (MOUs) and agreements with external agencies and departments.
Assessing Social Media, Email, and Student Writing
Drawing on his book, An Educator's Guide to Assessing Threats in Student Writing, Dr. Brian Van Brunt will teach participants what to look for when reviewing written and video content that may appear on social media, in email, or in creative writing assignments.
Crisis De-Escalation
Drawing on Dr. Brian Van Brunt’s work in his books A Faculty Guide to Disruptive and Dangerous Behavior and A Staff Guide to Addressing Disruptive and Dangerous Behavior on Campus, this training will explore the difference between disruptive and dangerous behavior in and outside the classroom. The training will cover how to de-escalate a crisis when it occurs and the importance of sharing this information forward with your BIT/CARE team.
Workplace Violence Prevention Plans
Required by California’s SB553 and recommended for all workplaces, these plans identify and mitigate potential risk factors for violence and include procedures for responding to violence and potential violence. DPrep Safety offers templates and can work with you to tailor them to your site’s needs. We also offer comprehensive site walkthroughs and can train your staff on how to prepare for and respond to potential violence.
Advanced Intake and Interviewing Skills
-
Improve your interviewing skills for threat, conduct, Title IX, counseling and case management
-
Better gather information from those who are defensive or unwilling to share
-
Practice your skill in front of subject matter experts with actors and real-life case scenarios
Advanced Intake and Interviewing Skills
Gathering information from another party is an important skill set that crosses over a number of fields including threat assessment, Title IX, case management, conduct/discipline, and law enforcement/campus safety. This course is meant as an advanced track, moving the conversation beyond the interviewing and intake skills outlined in our BIT/CARE trainings. Dr. Brian Van Brunt and his team teach from decades of experience with an intersectional focus on counseling, law enforcement, campus safety, student conduct and legal techniques.
Learning takes place in a blended model of lecture, video demonstrations and practical and interactive exercises. For both in-person and virtual classes, opportunities will be provided to engage with live subject matter experts and actors to obtain real-world, hands-on experience with instructor feedback. This will allow for a deeper understanding and practical application of techniques with various populations and differing interview goals.
Different populations will be discussed, including the importance of understanding unique language, insider references, body language, eye contact, attitudes toward authority and the high-stakes nature of the interview topic. Room locations, online vs. in-person, safety considerations, recording, third party viewing, and police position will be discussed as well. Join us for the definitive experience to learn new skills and improve existing techniques.

Cost for In-Person/Hybrid Program ($8500)
The course is taught in-person in four 90-minute sections (two in the morning and two in the afternoon). Two 90-minute virtual classes* are also included, to be scheduled at a convenient time for the school, college/university, housing authority or workplace. Travel for the presenter(s) is included in the $8500 cost.
* This price is for a team of up to 15 people. Please contact us for larger teams. These trainings are recorded for future team members and review for existing team members and hosted on a specific, tailored site for your community.
Dear Administrator,
I’ve just learned about a great interview course that would be great for a few different departments on campus. The course covers interviewing skills that would be useful for our BIT/CARE team members, conduct officers, Title IX coordinators and investigators, threat assessment professionals, counseling department, case management and law enforcement/campus safety. After talking with Dr. Brian Van Brunt* and reviewing the attached proposal, I believe this is a good opportunity for our institution.
-
The pricing model is transparent and reasonable for the amount of work and detail that goes into the course. While $7000 is a substantial amount of money, the ability to train several different departments at once in these advanced interviewing skills is a good opportunity. This includes not only the live training, but six 90-minute recordings we are able to use for reference and new team members. If we choose to have the training on campus for a day, we then have two supplemental 90-minute trainings that are recorded.
-
They also look at this issue from a culturally competent lens, leaning into experts such as Tammy Hodo from All Things Diverse and Jacque Whitfield from CPSHR. This helps ensure our interviewing and information gathering is done with attention to cultural considerations.
-
The final two parts of the course involve live practice sessions with their team of subject matter experts. This really gives us the chance to put the skills our team learned into practice.
-
Brian and his group have literally written the book on threat assessment and interviewing skills. I really like the way the course leans into various perspectives (Title IX, conduct, threat, BIT/CARE, counseling, law enforcement, case management). They also offer free threat trainings and materials we can review and use without the need to invest more money that can help our team retain the knowledge shared.
-
When I look at courses like these offered by other organizations, the difference here is they don’t draw out concepts over multiple days, taking into account our training budget and our staff time. DPrep Safety works to keep costs low and uses only highly experienced and knowledgeable instructors.
I think this would be extremely valuable for our team. While we have knowledgeable staff on campus, there is a lot of value in hearing from an expert outside team on how we can fill in any exposure points in our work or legal liabilities.

Dear Administrator,
We’ve had our team trained on the foundations of threat assessment and I think this class is the next step for us. Dr. Brian Van Brunt* has put together an advanced class that looks at a number of issues we have been seeing on our campus and on the national stage (e.g., social media threats, incels and white supremacist violence).
-
The pricing model is transparent and reasonable for the amount of work and detail that goes into the course.

-
The course is part of an overall series that culminates in a threat certification for our team. I think this is an important goal for us, in that it provides a level of expertise in our training.

Team Certification
-
Put your skills to the test and demonstrate your team's ability on six challenging cases
-
Receive subject matter expert feedback from law enforcement, student conduct and counseling
-
Commit your team to on-going testing and improvement to prevent violence and better mitigate legal risk to your community/institution
Team Certification
DPrep Safety works with schools, workplaces, colleges, and universities who desire to put their team through a tailored experience of working through a number of cases to receive a certification in threat assessment for their team. Cases are developed within general topic (e.g., mental illness, low level threat, outsider threat, relationship violence) and are tailored for the specific team working the case. For example, if the community a workplace, the threat will demonstrate a workplace scenario. If the location is middle school or a community, non-residential college, then that will be included in the case details.
Certification is offered through a process wherein the team is given a case with two weeks lead time to create a triage assessment of risk, score the case with a VRA process (e.g., HCR-20, Darkfox, SIVRA-35, WAVR-21, MOSAIC, etc.) and generate a final threat report including mitigation planning that will be submitted to our subject matter experts. The case will be scored on a rubric and discussed during the 90-minute zoom discussion.
Access to Pathways and DarkFox is included for two years when your team successfully completes the certification class. Teams are welcome to sign up for the certification course in threat once they complete Advanced Interviewing and Advanced Threat Assessment (or course equivalence).

* This price is for a team of up to 15 people. Please contact us for larger teams.
Dear Administrator,
This class would give our team some practical experience working through a variety of cases, with specific feedback on how our team worked through these cases. We can then obtain certification through DPrep Safety. I think this is the next step for us. Dr. Van Brunt serves as the primary subject matter experts for the case reviews, and we believe this is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate our team’s skill set.
-
The pricing model is transparent and reasonable for the amount of work and detail that goes into the course. While $7000 is a substantial amount of money, provides an amazing amount of feedback to our team.
-
They also look at this issue from a culturally competent lens, leaning into experts such as Tammy Hodo from All Things Diverse and Jacque Whitfield from CPSHR. This helps ensure our interviewing and information gathering is done with attention to cultural considerations.
-
The course offers a threat certification for our team. I think this is an important goal for us, in that it provides a level of expertise in our training. They also include DPrep Safety’s two expert systems, Pathway and DarkFox, for two years. Recertification occurs every two years by having the team score and discuss another case and receive that same 90 minutes of discussion, training and feedback. The cost is $750 and they continue to offer access to Pathways and DarkFox as a benefit for certified teams.
-
Brian has literally written the book(s) on threat assessment and interviewing skills. He offers free threat trainings and materials we can review and use without the need to invest more money that can help our team retain the knowledge shared.
