Training will provide 2 of the 28 hours of Fundamental Course of Study (FCS) required for all K-12 instructional paraeducators to participate in as part of the legislative funding for HB 1115 and SB 6388.

Session will include a brief overview of the certification and training requirements. Participants will:

• Define proactive approaches to student behavior management and de-escalation strategies 

• Identify positive and proactive supports that can be used within the classroom or school environment

• Identify available resources in school or community to help assist students and families (added January 15, 2020)

Participants will need both two-way audio and video capabilities via Zoom to be able to participate in the course. Participants will be asked to enable both audio and video to engage in this workshop.

Participants should be duty-free during the course and not stationed in a room with students.

Participants should be adequately spaced in separate rooms to avoid audio interference during the course.

Participants should join on individual devices 1:1.  If this is not possible, 2:1 is acceptable.

Any questions or barriers you may have regarding these technical requirements should be directed to Michelle Grove in advance of the course start date so appropriate accommodations can be accounted for.
