Training for School Districts

This training format is recommended for school districts to provide a comprehensive workshop to train all staff members in their district. Special education teachers, para-professionals, ancillary service providers (speech, OT, PT), teachers responsible for inclusion, parents and administrators all benefit and are strongly encouraged to attend.

• Didactic Workshop: This 3-day workshop provides participants with knowledge and experience in the implementation of discrete trial training and intensive behavioral treatment methodologies. Training includes an overview of autism and review of applied research, principles of behavior analysis  and management, a description and explanation of treatment programs and curriculum, and demonstrations of these teaching methods.
• Hands-On Training Workshop: Participants gain practical experiences so that at the conclusion of the 5 days participants will be able to implement ABA in the classroom.  During this workshop, each person will have extensive opportunity to practice implementing the teaching programs while receiving feedback from Autism Partnership to improve skills.

Ongoing support, supervision and onsite training is critical to providing effective ABA programs in the classroom setting. Several days per month is recommended.
