Praesidium Webinars for Selective Insureds
Abuse Prevention with Screening & Selection
Screening and selection is a critical component to preventing abuse within your organization. This webinar equips participants with a powerful understanding of effective screening and selection methods. Participants learn specific questions to ask during interviews that may reveal applicant characteristics that indicate an increased risk to abuse. Participants learn how to critically review information provided on written applications and strategies to conduct productive reference checks. Lastly, participants will learn best practices as it relates to background checks. This webinar will also discuss the availability of additional screening resources made available through Selective’s partnership with Praesidium. To download the presentation slides click here.
Abuse Prevention Policies: The Why, What, & How-To's
Essential to effective abuse risk management, written policies set the stage for safe environments. Policies communicate an organization’s commitment to abuse prevention to its employees, volunteers, consumers, and the community in general. Policies also set the bandwidth of acceptable behavior between adults and vulnerable populations within organizational programs. This webinar will explore the policies your organization should have in place and the availability of written resources through Selective’s partnership with Praesidium.

Influence the Outcome of a Sexual Abuse Crisis
The media and legislative changes provide consistent reminders that organizations need to manage the risk of sexual abuse of a child or vulnerable adult. But what happens when the unthinkable happens and an allegation of abuse arises? The actions an organization takes in these critical initial moments and those that follow set the stage for a variety of emotions, opinions, and exposures that may last years. Praesidium has worked with clients around the world to prevent sexual abuse of vulnerable populations, to prevent false allegations of abuse, and to prevent the loss of reputation and revenue for organizations. We know that having the right abuse prevention and crisis-management systems in place can make all the difference. Praesidium will provide attendees insider knowledge that can influence the outcome of a crisis situation by assessing real-life scenarios to highlight what went wrong and what this means for your organization now and in the future.

Empowering Everyone: The Importance of Training

In this webinar Praesidium will discuss the content your team needs to know, the best way to reach them, the frequency by which you need to conduct training, and how to get started with the existing training resources available through the Selective-Praesidium partnership (available at no additional cost).

Monitoring and Supervising for Safety: A Two-Part Discussion
Abuse happens in organizations that do not promote safety and respect. Creating a safe environment goes a long way toward preventing all types of abuse, including youth-to-youth bullying and abuse. Monitoring and supervision are critical components in protecting clients, employees, volunteers, and the organization.
Part One:
How youth-to-youth abuse occurs and how to prevent it through systematic monitoring and supervising procedures.
Part Two:
How to implement best practices in higher-risk situations like bathrooms, locker rooms, overnight stays, trips, and more.
