CEU Course Description
This brief intermediate level continuing education course was developed using the U.S. Department of Justice publication, Bullying in Schools: An Overview and is designed to explore the connections between bullying in schools, school attendance and engagement, and academic achievement. The CE material provides an overview of Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP)-funded studies, a summary of the researchers’ findings, and recommendations for policy and practice. Specific responses to successfully reduce school bullying are compared with strategies that have shown to have limited effectiveness.
