Lakeside Global Institute

What Lakeside Global Institute does

Lakeside Global Institute (operating under legal entity Lakeside Training) is a privately-held professional services firm headquartered in North Wales, Pennsylvania, that delivers trauma-informed training, workshops, intensive courses, and certifications. The company targets three primary verticals: K-12 schools and educational institutions (served through its NeuroLogic® brand), healthcare organizations (with documented engagement at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia), and enterprises and individual professionals seeking organizational or individual trauma certification. The core methodology combines brain-science-informed understanding of trauma with practical classroom and clinical applications, codified under a Trauma-Informed Care Framework.

The product portfolio is organized into three main programs: Lakeside Global Institute (the flagship division offering workshops, intensive courses, and certifications), NeuroLogic® (a school-specific trauma-informed training and coaching brand, protected as a registered trademark), and Creating Presence (an online organizational trauma certification program). Delivery occurs through live sessions (both virtual and in-person, accommodating various group sizes), on-demand e-learning via learn.lakesidetraining.org, podcasts for thought leadership, and an e-commerce shop (shop.lakeside.net) for individual course and material purchases. Live delivery is the original modality, with on-demand content explicitly characterized as an expanding catalog.

The business model is professional services — fees charged per training session, workshop, intensive course, or certification, with both pay-as-you-go individual offerings and multi-year institutional contracts available. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales to schools, districts, and healthcare systems with self-serve e-commerce and online learning for individual professionals. The company serves a mix of U.S. clients (Pennsylvania, California) and international engagements (documented in Norway, with references to Southeast Asia). No technology-platform/API infrastructure, AI/ML capabilities, or external funding are disclosed in the source data.

• Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI): CPI provides crisis-intervention and trauma-informed training to schools, healthcare, and human-services organizations. It is the most direct peer, competing for the same institutional training budgets Lakeside targets.
• Committee for Children (Second Step): Committee for Children's Second Step program is a leading SEL curriculum for K-12 schools, including trauma-informed and mental health modules — competing with NeuroLogic® for the same district training spend.
• Kognito: Kognito builds interactive simulations for mental health, trauma-informed practice, and educator training — a close competitor to Lakeside's on-demand and live training model for schools and healthcare.
• Mental Health First Aid (National Council for Mental Wellbeing): Mental Health First Aid is a national skills-based training program teaching adults how to identify and respond to mental health and trauma challenges — directly overlapping Lakeside's professional training mission.
• QPR Institute: QPR Institute trains professionals in suicide prevention and trauma-related gatekeeper skills — overlapping Lakeside's audience of teachers, counselors, and healthcare workers.

Others

• The Trevor Project: Trevor Project provides crisis and mental health training for educators working with youth — adjacent to Lakeside's audience rather than a direct competitor, useful as a partner or referral pathway.

Emerging players

• Pure Edge: Pure Edge provides SEL, mindfulness, and trauma-informed training programs to schools and educators — a smaller, mission-driven peer competing for similar K-12 professional development budgets.
• Active Minds: Active Minds delivers mental health awareness and training programs targeting schools and young adults — partial overlap with Lakeside's educator and youth-serving training portfolio.

Broad incumbents

• Navigate360: Navigate360 is a larger K-12 platform offering SEL, safety, and behavioral health training as part of a broader suite — overlapping with Lakeside's school training line but at greater scale.
