About the Webinar
A collaborative, proactive approach to challenging problems
This is the innovative, evidence-based, trauma-informed model Dr. Ross Greene describes in his influential books The Explosive Child, Lost at School, Lost & Found, Raising Human Beings, and the recently released The Kids Who Aren’t Okay: The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools (February 2026).
The CPS model has transformed thinking and practices in countless families, general and special education schools, inpatient psychiatric units, and residential and juvenile detention facilities throughout the world, and has been associated with dramatic reductions in adult-child conflict, concerning behaviors, disciplinary referrals, detentions, suspensions, restraints, and seclusions.
The model represents a significant departure from discipline-as-usual: it focuses on solving problems rather than on modifying behavior, encourages proactive rather than reactive intervention, emphasizes collaborative rather than unilateral solutions, de-emphasizes diagnostic categories, and provides practical, research-based tools for assessment and intervention. Participants in this workshop will leave with an understanding of the underpinnings of the model and practical assessment and intervention tools that can be brought back to and used in their settings.

He also developed and executive produced the documentary film, The Kids We Lose, released in 2018. Dr. Greene served on the faculty at Harvard Medical School for over 20 years, and is now Founding Director of the non-profit Lives in the Balance, which aims to disseminate the CPS model and support caregivers through a vast array of free web-based resources; advocate on behalf of kids with concerning behaviors and their caregivers; and advocate for systemic changes to encourage the use of non-punitive, non-exclusionary interventions. He is currently adjunct Professor in the Department of Psychology at Virginia Tech and adjunct Professor in the Faculty of Science at University of Technology Sydney in Australia. Dr. Greene’s research has been funded by the Stanley Research Institute, the National Institutes of Mental Health, the U.S. Department of Education, and the Maine Juvenile Justice Advisory Group.

Webinar access links, passwords, handouts, and other participant-only materials may not be shared, posted publicly, forwarded, reproduced, or distributed except as expressly permitted by SENIA International or the applicable rights holder.
SENIA International administers registration, payment collection, participant access, customer support, and webinar moderation. The agreement expressly gives SENIA control over these functions.
Registration fees are non-refundable. Your registration includes access to both live sessions of Collaborative & Proactive Solutions: Moving From Power and Control to Collaboration and Problem-Solving, as well as access to the recorded course through SENIA Academy once it becomes available. If you are unable to attend one or both live sessions, you will retain access to the recorded course for the published access period. If SENIA International cancels the program and is unable to provide a reasonable replacement, rescheduled session, or the promised recorded course access, SENIA will provide an appropriate refund or credit. Please note that access to the recording does not substitute for live attendance for purposes of the Certificate of Completion. Certificates for the live program are issued only to participants whose attendance is verified for both live sessions.
Participant information and privacy
SENIA International collects participant information necessary to register for, administer, support, and evaluate the program. This may include your name, email address, organization, professional role, payment and registration status, attendance, completion status, certificate information, support requests, and webinar usage or engagement information.
SENIA may use participant information for program operations, security, participant support, analytics, legal compliance, recordkeeping, and marketing of SENIA's own programs, consistent with applicable law and SENIA's privacy practices. These uses are specifically contemplated by the agreement.
SENIA may provide Dr. Ross Greene only the minimum participant information reasonably necessary for certificate issuance, agreed program delivery, participant-requested support, accounting, or legally required reporting. Dr. Greene may use information shared with him only for those purposes and may not add participants to a marketing list unless the participant has separately provided legally sufficient consent.
Because the program is delivered using third-party technology, including Zoom, participant information necessary to provide the service may also be processed through those service providers.

SENIA is committed to maintaining a professional, respectful, and productive learning environment.
Participants must communicate respectfully with the presenter, SENIA staff, and other participants.

Participants should not submit personally identifiable, confidential, or sensitive information about students, clients, families, colleagues, or other individuals through Q&A, chat, polls, or other interactive features.
SENIA reserves the right to restrict or remove a participant whose conduct disrupts a session, threatens safety, infringes rights, violates applicable law, or violates these participant terms. That authority is expressly provided in the agreement.
Program content and recording
Dr. Ross Greene retains all rights, title, and interest in his Collaborative & Proactive Solutions materials, including the CPS model, program content, recordings, slides, handouts, curriculum, marks, and related materials. SENIA retains ownership of its own platform, participant-management systems, workflows, analytics, and independently created materials.
Registration provides participants with access to program materials for their individual educational use. Unless expressly authorized, participants may not reproduce, record, publish, distribute, sell, upload, livestream, or otherwise make program content or materials available to others.
The live program will be recorded by SENIA International.
By registering for and participating in the program, you acknowledge that SENIA will record the live sessions for purposes authorized under its agreement with Dr. Ross Greene, including development of a potential asynchronous version of the program.
SENIA will use reasonable technical measures to exclude or remove identifiable participant contributions from any asynchronous course unless the applicable participant has provided a valid release permitting their inclusion.
Participant contributions may include a participant's name, image, voice, question, comment, chat message, poll response, or other contribution. The contract specifically defines these as Participant Content. Participants remain responsible for the content they voluntarily submit. By participating, participants grant SENIA a limited right to use their contributions only as necessary to host and administer the live program. Participant contributions will not be included in the asynchronous course without a valid release or effective de-identification.
Participants may not independently record, screen-record, photograph, livestream, transcribe, or otherwise capture or distribute the webinar or its materials without prior written authorization.

SENIA International will issue a Certificate of Completion only to participants whose attendance records demonstrate attendance at both scheduled live sessions, subject to reasonable accommodations and documented platform outages determined by SENIA in good faith. The certificate is a record of course completion only. It does not constitute professional licensure, professional certification, continuing-education credit, academic credit, or endorsement by a university, licensing body, or regulator.
