Nota: Debido a la naturaleza sensible (y la prevalencia) del acoso, se sugiere que esta especialidad sea enseñada por una persona que haya recibido capacitación recientemente o haya realizado una lectura/investigación significativa acerca del tema de la prevención del acoso (y si es posible haya sido certificado en este tema). La MEJOR manera de desarrollar esta especialidad es a través de una serie de sesiones, de modo que los principios se conviertan en parte de la naturaleza de los participantes, en vez de que aprendan rápidamente y se olviden igual de rápido.
Nota: Prevención del acoso I y II se escribieron sin que uno fuera el requisito previo del otro para que el instructor pueda elegir la(s) especialidad(es) para enseñar que son más relevantes para el grupo y la dinámica de grupo.
