Managing Challenging Behavior: October 20, 2023 (virtual training)

October 20th, 2023     8:00 a.m. to  4:00 p.m. 

CHALLENGING BEHAVIORS: HOW TO PREVENT, REDUCE, AND REPLACE

This highly interactive virtual training offers strategies for navigating behavior challenges with learners of all ages, in any environment. Using case studies and examples from your setting we begin the workshop highlighting the key concepts of applied behavior analysis, helping you to understand why challenging behaviors occur. We discuss the importance of designing supportive learning environments based upon the Pyramid Approach to Education® framework. The next step in the workshop is to define behaviors which require intervention and establish the function of these behaviors.  

The second half of the workshop addresses strategies which can be used proactively and reactively to decrease the challenging behaviors which you see in your setting. As we investigate each strategy to replace or reduce a behavior you will have the opportunity to assess if that strategy will be suitable for your learner and identify the next steps to take when you return to your setting. The workshop concludes by demonstrating how you and your team can evaluate and monitor the effectiveness of your behavior plans as you put your new strategies into practice.
