- Tier 2 Behavioral Interventions: Empowering Educators for Student Success
Tier 2 Behavioral Interventions: Empowering Educators for Student Success
–
10/02/2024Join us for a comprehensive training workshop designed to equip educators and school staff with the tools and strategies needed to implement effective Tier 2 behavioral interventions in educational settings. This training will focus on three key interventions: Check-In/Check-Out, Mentoring, and Small Group Instruction, providing participants with practical approaches to support students who require additional behavioral support beyond the universal level. Participants will explore the rationale behind Tier 2 interventions, distinguishing them from universal and Tier 3 supports, and learn how to collect and analyze data to monitor student progress and make informed decisions. Through interactive sessions, case studies, and collaborative activities, educators will gain a deeper understanding of how to tailor these interventions to meet the diverse needs of students. On-site coaching will be available for all participants and their Tier 2 teams to ensure fidelity of implementation and to provide further support as needed.
