PSY-V7003 Treatment Planning and Report Writing
In this residency, learners practice skills related to report writing, behavior interventions, treatment planning, and recommendations. Learners analyze Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), 504 Plans, and special education identifications. Learners identify the various sections and characteristics of psychological/psycho-educational reports; examine the principles and skills used to write reports; and engage in report writing practice sessions, individually with the instructor and in small groups. Learners develop interventions for students with internalizing and externalizing disorders, social skills training programs for preschool and adolescent students, and a training curriculum designed to assist parents in managing their children's problem behavior. Learners also discuss treatment plan formats and case examples in groups and work on cases individually. Learners examine and practice school-appropriate supervision skills and develop the communication and assertiveness skills needed to facilitate efficient resolution of individual (i.e., student), group (i.e., class), and school challenges. Learners also examine the ethical principles associated with the practice of school psychology. Cannot be fulfilled by transfer.
