Behavioral Support & Development

Phase 1: Online Canvas Modules

• The district reviews 10 available modules (based on 10 skills from the RBT® task list) designed to build a paraprofessional’s capacity in effectively managing behavior, taking data, and supporting class-wide initiatives. Districts may choose to have paraprofessionals complete all 10 modules or choose those that are most relevant to the building’s needs.
• Participants complete interactive reflection/assessment activities throughout module completion. 
• Available modules include:
  • Introduction to ABA in Schools
  • Integrating Trauma-Informed Practices
  • Prepare for Data Collection
  • Conduct Preference Assessments
  • Implement Prompt and Prompt-Fading Procedures
  • Implement Token Economy Procedures
  • Describe Common Functions of Behavior
  • Implement Differential Reinforcement Procedures
  • Implement Extinction Procedures
  • Maintain Professional Boundaries/Maintain Client Dignity

Phase 2: Embedded Support

• The ESC's SOS Team BCBA will provide ongoing support to program participants. This may include lesson plan templates for skill acquisition, progress monitoring initiatives, or additional resources and training as applicable for the paraprofessional staff members working through the modules. Embedded support is required but customizable to district needs based on the scope of work.
