The PCM Train the Trainer Model
The PCMA employs a “train the trainer” model to allow user organizations to maintain the PCM certifications of their staff in a cost effective way.
Unlike other systems, all PCM Instructors are “first generation” instructors. That is, they have all been trained by the expert instructor trainers employed by PCMA. The quality of training is not “watered down” by allowing others to train instructors.
Instructors can either be trained at the user organization (if there are enough participants) or at the PCMA headquarters in Ft. Lauderdale Florida.
Typically, instructors are employed by user organizations and train the staff of the organization.

"I have been working in the field of human services for 30 years and have had the pleasure of collaborating with and using the services of PCMA on a number of occasions. While PCMA has grown from a small practice to a national company over the last 25 years, they have maintained integrity and a commitment to excellent services. In my experience, no other company providing crisis management and behavior analysis services compares to PCMA with respect to ethics, quality, expertise and standards of practice." Kenneth L.
