PSY-V6002 Response to Intervention and Functional Behavior Assessment
In this residency course, learners practice application of the Response to Intervention (RTI) and Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) processes. Learners build capacity to implement the RTI framework in local and state education agencies. Learners also examine and practice skills related to the RTI components for screening students, monitoring student progress, providing evidence-based interventions, and identifying students with unique learning needs in a collaborative approach. Learners practice identifying appropriate circumstances and steps for conducting a functional behavioral assessment (FBA), developing the behavior intervention plan (BIP) and identifying the individual components of an FBA and BIP. Additionally, learners practice interpreting case study data and integrate and summarize this data, orally and in writing, to provide important feedback to school personnel about a student’s challenging behaviors.
