What does it take to determine whether an assessment, tool, model, or practice truly works as intended? Join us for an engaging conversation with Dr. Danielle Rieger, Director of Research, as we pull back the curtain on the validation process and explore the science behind evidence-based practices.

Through an interactive interview format, Dr. Rieger will discuss what validation really means, why it matters, and how rigorous research builds confidence in assessments, interventions, case management tools, and implementation models. From research design and data analysis to interpreting findings and addressing common misconceptions, this session will provide a practical look at how evidence is built, tested, and applied in real-world settings.

Research consistently demonstrates that interventions are most effective when they target the factors most closely associated with criminal behavior. This webinar introduces participants to a driver-focused approach that identifies an individual's primary criminogenic driver and aligns interventions accordingly. Participants will examine the evidence supporting this approach, learn when and how to administer the Driver Workbook, and practice integrating results into case planning and supervision strategies to maximize opportunities for behavior change and successful outcomes.
