Functional Behavioral Assessment & Behavior Support Planning (FBA/BSP) (Virtual)

Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) is a process for identifying the events that reliably predict and maintain problem behavior. A Behavior Support Plan (BSP) then takes the observations made in an FBA and turns them into a concrete plan of action for managing a student’s behavior. This three-part training will focus on practical approaches to developing effective FBAs and BSPs. First will be a focus on developing the systems capacity for developing FBA/BSPs. Attendees will then have an opportunity to develop an FBA for a selected student and leave with a plan to finalize the FBA back at school. At subsequent sessions, participants will have the opportunity to revisit the FBA developed and refine it or change it as well as practice how to develop a Behavior Support Plan from the FBA. As a result, individuals will gain competency in both facilitating and conducting this process.

Who should attend? A team (at least two people) consisting of staff who are selected by their School Leadership Team to develop the capacity to conduct FBA/BSPs, including those with expertise working with students with challenging behavior (counselors, behavior specialists, etc.)

Please note this is a three-part training: November 4th, November 18, and December 2nd from 9:00am – 1:00pm (with breaks)
