This webinar will discuss research-based practices on training teachers and paraprofessionals to use and implement behavior strategies and tactics in the school setting. We will address a training sequence that supports teaching the basic principles of behavior, understanding the three-term contingency, collecting data, and providing feedback to teachers and paraprofessionals.
