Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to: -- Identify when discharge is appropriate. -- Consider previous actions. -- Look at the severity of the problem. -- Address special circumstances. -- Prepare for discharge. -- Lay the groundwork. -- Develop a strategy for the meeting. -- Plan the exit process. -- Communicate the decision. -- Be clear and concise. -- Provide termination-processing information. -- Document the meeting. -- Respond to inquiries about the discharge.
Assessment:
Each course ends with a 20-question test made up of 10 true/false questions and 10 multiple-choice questions. If the Student achieves a 70% or higher on the test, then the training allows them to print out a Certificate of Completion. This test may be taken as many times as the Student wants during the licensed, on-line access period. No other testing or tracking is provided and, due to the personal nature of some of the skills tested, these scores are not recorded or tracked (besides the student themselves being able to print the certificate if they score >70% on the optional test). The test is not required to complete the course, but is an option, chosen at the student's discretion, should they desire to attempt to gain the Certificate of Completion.
