The primary goal of VTRA II is to be able to more identify complex cases and better understand how multidisciplinary VTRA teams can do more than a single professional or discipline to assess and intervene in them. After this training, teams will be better able to formally distinguish between Stage I VTRA (Threat Assessment) and Stage II VTRA (Risk Assessment), and identify case-specific risk enhancers and the proper interventions for them.
Conducting interviews is part of this process. This training identifies and fine tunes key elements of good strategic interviewing, including how and why to ask particular questions at particular times for VTRA. It assists participants in the practice of multidisciplinary collaboration in planning interview questions and in the follow through of managing and interviewing the student (or person) of concern and others related to the process.
Although the Level II Training is heavily weighted to those who are more formally involved with VTRA policy, procedure, and protocol, it is structured in such a way that all who took Level I can benefit.
