Two OPI renewal units will be available for each virtual training.
NEW - Behavior for ASD: Communication Barriers

April 26th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 18th 2:45 - 4:15 p.m.
This talk will look at how to specifically apply evidence-based intervention for level I, II, and III learners when they are using interfering behavior as a means of communication.
NEW- Behavior for ASD: Relationship Barriers
February 2nd 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
April 12th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 18th 1:00 - 2:30 p.m.
This talk will look at how to specifically apply evidence-based intervention for learners of differing abilities when they are not building relationships with educators and peers.
Stop Behavior Before It Starts: Part 2 - Getting Ahead of the Behavior
November 17th 9:00 -10:30 a.m. (registration closed)
January 3rd 3:30 - 5:00 p.m.
March 1st 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 17th 10:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
This presentation looks at how you can use evidence-based practices to get ahead of the behavior (antecedent intervention). This strategy can likely reduce the occurrence of interfering behavior.
Behavior for ASD: Refusal Barriers
December 8th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
January 5th 10:45 - 12:15 p.m.
March 22nd 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 18th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
This talk will look at how to specifically apply evidence-based intervention for learners of differing abilities when they refuse or escape tasks.
Behavior for ASD: Sensory Barriers
December 15th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
January 26th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
March 29th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 18th 10:45 - 12:15 p.m.
This talk will look at how to specifically apply evidence-based intervention for learners of differing abilities when their sensory needs are creating barriers to learning.
Brain Differences for ASD: What It Means for Behavior
January 4th 3:30 - 5:00 p.m.
March 8th 9:00 -10:30 a.m.
June 17th 1:00 - 2:30 p.m.
People with ASD experience brain differences. Understanding these differences can help us understand the behavior and learning of people on the spectrum. Understanding the learners’ differences can enhance our ability to teach them.
Executive Functioning: It Presents as Interfering Behavior
January 5th 9:00 -10:30 a.m.
March 15th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 17th 2:45 - 4:15 p.m.
Sometimes kids look like they just DON’T WANT TO…. Executive functioning challenges often come out as interfering behavior. Learn about what we can expect at each age, how we can treat executive functioning challenges, and what some IEP goals can look like.
Stop Behavior Before It Starts: Part 1 - Understanding Behavior
January 2nd 3:30 - 5:00 p.m.
February 23rd 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
June 17th 9:00 - 10:30 a.m.
This presentation looks at what motivates behavior, how to identify those motivators, how to identify the reinforcing consequences, the crisis cycle, extinction bursts, and everything that just makes behavior confusing.
