Violence
Prevention Certification Training
On July 24, 2000, Governor George Pataki signed into law
the most comprehensive legislative plan in the country,
entitled Project SAVE (Safe Schools Against Violence in
Education), to promote a safer and more effective learning
environment within New York State’s schools. One
component of SAVE is the requirement that candidates
seeking permanent NYS certification participate in a
two-hour violence prevention certification training.
According to this law, this two-hour certification course
is required for any individual applying for permanent
certification on or after 2/02/01 through the State
Education Department such as a teacher, teaching
assistant, pupil personnel services professional, school
administrator, school athletic coach, supervisor or
superintendent of schools.
Classes are all held at
the Gick Road Conference
Center and the cost is $35.00. To register, please
contact Ann Williams @ 581-3711/746-3711.

Certification Training dates, please visit our
