Prevent-Teach-Reinforce Training Series

5 Nov 2020 7:54 PM | Anne Zaslofsky (Administrator)


Do not miss this no-cost opportunity to gain essential skills in solving behavior problems.  Every teacher and school psychologist NEEDS this to be implementing this systemic framework for students with behavior challenges.   
 

Join us for a training series on Prevent-Teach-Reinforce led by Rose Iovannone, Ph.D., BCBA-D.  Dr. Iovannone is one of the developers of this research-based framework for implementing functional behavior assessments (FBAs) and developing function-based support plans (BIPs). PTR is a team-driven process that is facilitated by a coach who guides the team through identification of target behaviors, developing a hypothesis, building intervention plans, and providing active ongoing support to the teacher to implement the plan and evaluate its outcomes.  You'll get explicit guidance and strategies for implementing all five steps of PTR: 

  1. teaming and goal-setting
  2. collecting data
  3. conducting a PTR Functional Behavioral Assessment
  4. developing a PTR behavior intervention plan 
  5. Monitoring progress and making data-based decisions.
