Please note: The prerequisite for this training is the Behavioral & Digital Threat Assessment® Training.

The Advanced Behavioral and Digital Threat Assessment® (BDTA) builds on the foundational skills from Behavioral and Digital Threat Assessment®, focusing on factors that impact the threat assessment at each stage, advanced Digital Threat Assessment® techniques, strategic interviews, and practical application through interactive case scenarios and tabletops.

Behavioral and Digital Threat Assessment® is the first blended multidisciplinary model designed to help Safety/Threat Assessment teams in the early identification and assessment of individuals on the pathway to violence. BDTA® integrates Safer Schools Together’s Digital Threat Assessment® (DTA) training and best practice from the National Threat Assessment Center’s (NTAC) Behavioral Threat Assessment model, which is founded on more than 20 years of research. BDTA® includes a 3-step response plan developed to help teams ensure all worrisome, concerning, and threat-related behaviors are proactively responded to, reducing the potential of violence within your community.

This training will include:

• Review of Behavioral and Digital Threat Assessment®
