The monitoring and assessment of compliance with these standards will be the responsibility of the Training Coordinator in consultation with the members of the Executive Leadership Team.
While DBT In Schools, LLC goes to great lengths to assure fair treatment for all participants and attempts to anticipate problems, there will be occasional issues which come to the attention of the staff which require intervention and/or action on the part of the staff or a member of the Executive Leadership Team of DBT In Schools, LLC. This procedural description serves as a guideline for handling such grievances.
1. Complaints in the course of an educational activity: Should a participant in any DBT In Schools CE/CME event (including online training and distance education) be unsatisfied, the participant should immediately contact the onsite or assigned DBT In Schools employee to register a complaint, which the employee will attempt to resolve. If required, the DBT in Schools employee or contractor will refer the matter to the owners. If the matter is still not resolved, the DBT in Schools employee or contractor will immediately contact a member of the DBT in Schools Executive Leadership Team with a referral and a written description of the complaint. The Executive Leadership Team Member will respond either in writing or by telephone to the participant within five business days.
2. Complaints via phone or email: The complaint is first routed through our Training Coordinator who assesses the complaint and either addresses it immediately or sends it to the appropriate department manager to address. If the matter cannot be adequately resolved, the DBT In Schools employee or contractor will immediately contact a member of the DBT In Schools Executive Leadership Team with a referral and a written description of the complaint. The Executive Leadership Team Member will respond either in writing or by telephone to the participant within five business days.
3. Complaints regarding the CE Program: If the grievance concerns the DBT In Schools CE program, in a specific regard, the Training Coordinator will attempt to arbitrate. Complaints can be sent via e-mail to info@dbtinschools.org, by phone at 206.779.1265, or in writing to:
