Course overview
Workplace violence takes many forms beyond the headlines. It can come from a colleague, a customer, or someone with no connection to the job at all. Warning signs often surface weeks before an incident, and knowing how to report a concern, support a struggling coworker, or protect yourself in an escalating moment can change the outcome for everyone involved.
