Functional Behavior Assessment & Behavior Intervention Planning 2023-24

Do you feel frustrated by misbehavior that seems to occur on repeat for individual students that exceeds your Tier 1 and Tier 2 supports? Do you want to understand why behaviors happen and how to prevent, replace, and respond to challenging behaviors? If you’re looking to increase equity in your social behavior responses and would like to learn more about how behavior is communication, this series is for you. We will provide tools, resources, and practices to build your skills. Participants will leave each session with practical, hands-on tools and strategies for conducting FBAs to understand and improve student (and educator) success.

The series: Across the sessions, we will dive into understanding how pro-social and problem behavior patterns develop. Participants will receive tools and opportunities to practice functional behavioral assessment interviewing and direct observations to inform the development of competing behavior pathways. This understanding will lead to content where participants learn to develop interventions that provide socially appropriate replacement behaviors as well as prevention and reinforce/response strategies to shape new behaviors as part of culturally responsive behavior intervention plans. We will also provide tools and considerations for supporting and measuring implementation fidelity of behavior support plans as well as defining and measuring student social behavior outcomes.

 

Who should attend? Educators serving in roles to lead teams in informal and formal functional behavior assessments will leave each session with practical, hands-on tools and strategies for conducting FBAs to understand and improve student (and educator) success.
