This month is about Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) Unlocking Understanding.  Behavior Intervention Plans are essential tools for addressing challenging behaviors in students, and integrating neuroscientific insights can make these plans even more targeted and impactful. We will review what a neurobehavioral approach to behavior intervention plans is and how to implement one that can significantly enhance their effectiveness. Note this training is open to individuals across the U.S., 7-8:30 pm EST, 6-7:30 pm CT, 5-6:30 pm MT, and 4-5:30 pm PST.
