Transform your school’s Tier 2 intervention support from scattered efforts into a systematic approach that delivers results. This intensive 2-day training delivers exactly what your team needs to effectively implement Tier 2 systems and interventions that produce measurable results for students who need additional support.
This training will provide your team of educators with the rationale for Tier 2 and the step-by-step process for identification, matching intervention, making data-based decisions, and evaluating effectiveness at Tier 2 across social, emotional, and behavioral needs.
