Autism Classroom Resources Podcast: A Podcast for Special Educators

Tips for Training Paraprofessionals in the Classroom

Listen Later

This episode of the podcast (episode 23) will focus on training staff effectively and tips for getting it done in the classroom.  As we all know the days of paraprofessional making copies and filling in for office work are done…and we cannot do the jobs we do in our special education classrooms, or support students in general education classrooms without the help of paraprofessionals.

But I know that  training staff is a huge issue for many of us with data collection, behavior plans, and pretty much everything.  And I've got some tips and free resources that can help!
