Course Description:
School design is increasingly influenced by safety concerns. There is a direct relationship of the design and use of the environment, to human behavior and crime. Participants will analyze the impact of campus design on students and staff safety by reviewing school designs which include: parking, student drop-off, bus pick-up, signage, hallways, lockers, restrooms, lighting and more. In examining a school setting, participants will describe the benefits of incorporating CPTED strategies and principles.

This course will examine and suggest realistic solutions to problematic campus designs Those people who have an interest in CPTED and particularly school campuses are encouraged to attend. Architects, School Safety Directors, School Resource Officers and Administrators are invited to bring existing plans or problems to be reviewed. Class members will complete a school CPTED assessment and present their findings in a classroom setting. The participant will recognize design principles in a school setting which could support criminal behavior and will recommend design changes to correct them. Upon completion, the participant will have a basic understanding of CPTED concepts and strategies as applied in schools.




Pre-requisite. Since CPTED for Schools is a fast-paced 24-hour course, which focuses on all aspects of school campuses, it is NOT required that class members have previous CPTED training, although it would be advantageous to know the basic principles and concepts of CPTED. Therefore, a brief introduction to CPTED will occur during the first hour of class.
