Just the F.A.C.T.S.

“Mr. Weygandt is recognized by the National Association Of Forensic Counselors as a proficient educational provider, and due to the latter, was invited by the Board of Governors of the N.A.F.C. to present a program to social workers, forensic counselors and law enforcement personnel on “Proactive Crisis Management”, at our regional conference in Akron, Ohio Jan 2001. Based upon the objective evaluation forms and their scoring summary, the presentation was qualitatively outstanding- described variously as “… well organized and cogent”, “… unique and readily understood”, “… the information and training was capable of being immediately utilized”.

“The instructor, Kyle Weygandt, had the group participate in role-play scenarios. The message is that body language speaks louder than words. I found the workshop “Dealing with Workplace Violence” useful. I believe (the workshop) was a very instructional class that could help myself or any individual who deals with people, not only professionally but personally, on how to recognize what’s going on within yourself and how to properly respond!”

Lee Erickson, Clinical Supervisor, Stark Regional Community Corrections Center

“It is in the area of working with difficult youth and helping less experienced staff manage behavioral issues that Kyle truly excels. He is able to teach without being condescending, and due to his experiences and interpersonal skills, he is highly respected and held in great esteem.”

“The 2 day seminar known as the “S.M.A.R.T. Program” (Safety Management And Response Training) was FANTASTIC!!! Kyle is one of the best speakers I have had the pleasure of listening to. I will recommend this programs to others.”

“The Instructor was very knowledgeable and dedicated. I would recommend this program as part of the orientation training for all Security Officers.”

“In all of the classes and seminars that I’ve attended in my 29 years of employment, Kyle was the most professional and entertaining instructor I have ever met.”

“The program “Proactive Crisis Management and Physical Interception” is a must for those who serve in Law Enforcement and Social services since it gets down to the basics of what we all are concerned about. Kyle’s concepts and proactive approach to dealing with individuals in a crisis are applicable and easy to learn because it teaches the participant about how they deal with their own stress and not take the acting out behaviors of individuals personally. I can now see how this will have a positive effect on a person who’s agitated or in a crisis.”

"Kyle’s program “Street Smart Awareness for Social Workers” should be standard training for all Social workers all over the United States since it addresses and teaches survival skills to lower your risk factor of lethality in the community. Kyle’s ability and compassion for people shines through with his “Domestic Violence 101” class which gets to the root of most of the problems that social workers and law enforcement personnel deal with every day.”

Beverly Jordan, Director of the “Stark County Social Worker’s Network”

"I have personally experienced Kyle's ability to effectively instruct in a class room setting. Kyle is one the most dynamic, passionate instructors I have ever had the opportunity to observe."

"Kyle's de-escalation training for police officers who are responding to mental health consumers is excellent! He combines interactive experiences with lecture material in a format that provides individual enhancement of
knowledge, skills, and attitudes, as well as recognition and practice of team effort, something that is frequently required in responses to mental health consumers."

Carole Vesley, L.S.W. The Crisis Intervention Center

"The Workplace Violence training that your company provided was excellent. The way the material was presented gave those in attendance the opportunity to put to use the information they were being taught. I've gotten many positive responses that it was both informative and practical for today's business world."
