The purpose of this study was to conduct a quality improvement evaluation of the Colorado Threat Assessment and Management Protocol training. The quality improvement evaluation of the Colorado Threat Assessment and Management Protocol training included the following: (a) a pretest–posttest evaluation, (b) training monitoring, and (c) threat assessment case reviews. Data analysts ran descriptive statistics of all the data, paired t tests, and generalized linear modeling of the pretest–posttests to examine changes in participant perspectives and learning. Case review compliance scores were calculated as the sum of ratings divided by the total eligible points awarded and presented as percentages. Overall, the findings were positive. The findings indicated the following: (a) Participants’ pretest–posttest results for threat assessment skills, attitudes, confidence, and knowledge increased significantly as a result of the training; (b) the posttest feedback indicated that the training was feasible and culturally responsive, and they also intended to use the material and were satisfied with the training; (c) the fidelity monitoring results showed that trainers covered 92% of the training, and evaluators highly rated the quality of the training and training delivery; and (d) a small number of case reviews showed preliminary compliance across the main components of the Colorado Threat Assessment and Management Protocol form.
