“I have had the pleasure of working with the team from Protect International for over 9 years as a Detective and former President of an organization devoted to threat assessment education and training. The training that I have received from Protect International in Structured Professional Judgement tools, including the SARA, B-SAFER, SAM, HCR-20 and PATRIARCH, over the years has been invaluable in assisting myself and my colleagues to prevent many incidents of violence and keep our clients safe.”

“In reference to the field of threat assessment, Protect International has provided me with essential threat assessment training that I have immediately utilized in my profession. Protect International does not only provide me the essential foundational and advanced workshops which focus on required Structured Professional Judgement (SPJ) tool implementation, but the entire Protect International team understands the importance of open communication, flexibility, and networking within the professional realm they are immersed in. I would highly recommend Protect International to any individual that is considering a profession involving risk/threat assessment as their team is well known as the “go to training specialists” that professionals depend upon for the most recent and current trends in this ever evolving field.”

“Protect International has provided me with exceptional learning and support while I manage the process of conducting violence risk assessments for my institution and make recommendations on how to manage the behaviour. It is great to know that they are only a phone call away for professional, timely and insightful support. I have had the privilege in participating in foundational, advanced and topic specific workshops presented by Protect International and learned so much from their experience and research. Their team is extremely flexible and have even conducted personalized workshops and training for our team. My workshop manuals sit proudly on my desk and serve as a quick refresher and guide when assessing and managing violence. I find them extremely efficient to use and find every version more simplified than the previous. I highly recommend Protect International to any individual or team who is responsible for assessing and managing violence as part of their role.”

“My teams and I have been privileged to receive training, consultation and support from Protect International over the last two decades. They are the world leaders in the issue of violence risk assessment and management. In a fast evolving field they have always been ahead of the curve; indeed, they have driven the major theoretical and applied innovations in the field. While their training is founded on robust theoretical underpinnings it is fundamentally practical, realistic and implementable—this leads to better clinical practice. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“We sincerely acknowledged the value of training provided by Protect International. Many psychologists belonging to the Forensic Service, the National Police Agency, and the Correctional Service had the invaluable opportunity to learn how to conduct violence risk assessments and this clearly helps us to keep the public safe. Moreover, the training included realistic strategies and useful tactics in terms of management and intervention. We now have more confidence in our own positions and I personally expect we may make additional progressive steps to focus on the professional judgement. The advanced workshop gave us insights to deal with many questions and challenges to all of us in the field. If any professionals seek fundamental knowledge which is state of the art in risk assessment and management, I would recommend the training by Protect International.”
