PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
PD DESIGNED
WITH YOU IN MIND
At RMPD we utilize our own secret sauce which is connecting your staff to the real world. The same strategies teachers use for their students we use in our professional development. PowerPoint presentations have their utility in various platforms but here at RMPD we prefer engagement, group activities, music, and movement. Our unique skill sets allow us to connect with all staff throughout any session or presentation we do.
Participants are introduced to our patented “310” Theory which allow attendees to have a mental picture of which domain and specific dimension they are in as they navigate through each day.

DESCRIPTION
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA), trauma-informed care “realizes the widespread impact of trauma and understands potential paths for recovery; recognizes the signs and symptoms of trauma in clients, families, staff, and others involved with the system; responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into policies, procedures, and practices; and seeks to actively resist re-traumatization” (SAMHSA, 2014).

Mr. Shawn Brown, a native Chicagoan has developed an innovative curriculum enhancement program that utilizes catchy music for captivating and engaging audiences of children from Head Start to elementary grades - all while teaching them how to have "Super Fun"! His popular live show, “The Super Fun Show” has spread across the country gaining tremendous success as he visits schools and conferences nationwide.

Shawn is becoming a key person of influence in early childhood. His micro niche is behavior management under the Classroom Organization Domain. After 20-plus years of working with children and families and his constant need to be current with the needs of educators, families, and children he has combined Active Supervision with Behavior Management. Without behavior management, you are actively supervising CHAOS. RMPD is now a part of the on-demand landscape where video production and script writing are in our toolbox. We consider engagement mandatory.
