Advent eLearning offers over 30 behavior modification courses designed to address various criminal offenses. These courses support individuals in making better decisions and improving their lives. The level 1 and level 2 courses are tailored to meet different participant needs and circumstances. Understanding the key distinctions between these levels helps select the most appropriate program, ensuring participants receive an effective learning experience and achieve meaningful behavioral change.

 

Level 1 Courses: Offense Specific Intervention

Level 1 courses in the Advent eLearning platform are primarily designed for first-time offenders or individuals facing relatively minor charges. These courses offer essential behavior-specific content aimed at addressing the immediate issues related to the participant's offense. Level 1 courses focus on helping the participant understand the impact and consequences of their actions. By emphasizing core concepts in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and transformative learning, level 1 courses aim to foster awareness and initial behavioral adjustments.

 

Level 2 Courses: Enhanced Intervention

Level 2 courses combine the behavior-specific content of the original level 1 course with the addition of the Corrective Thinking course modules. The Corrective Thinking course consists of four hours of cognitive behavioral therapy content designed to delve deeper into decision-making processes and help participants develop more robust coping strategies. The enhanced intervention provided by level 2 courses aims to address more ingrained behavioral patterns and promote significant, long-term changes. These courses are particularly suited for individuals who have either faced similar charges previously, are facing higher charges, or are dealing with multiple charges.

 

Applicability and Appropriateness

Choosing between a level 1 and level 2 course depends largely on the participant's history and the severity of their current situation. For first-time offenders or those involved in minor infractions, a level 1 course may be sufficient to correct behavior and prevent future offenses. However, for participants with a history of antisocial behavior, higher-level charges, or multiple charges, a level 2 course is often more appropriate. The comprehensive nature of level 2 courses ensures that these participants receive the additional support and intensive intervention needed to address deeper issues and promote lasting behavioral change.

 

Selecting the right Advent eLearning course is crucial for effectively addressing the needs of participants and fostering positive outcomes. While level 1 courses provide a solid understanding of the anti-social behavior of the offense, level 2 courses provide additional CBT for participants who face more egregious offenses or have a history of antisocial behavior. By understanding the differences and appropriate applications of each course level, criminal justice agencies can make informed decisions that contribute to successful rehabilitation and long-term behavioral improvement.
