Effective Staff Training with Behavioral Skills Training: A Guide to Training and Maintaining Vital Skills

Many special educators are expected to deliver training to the paraprofessionals and teaching aides that work in their classrooms. Typical didactic methods of training are largely ineffective for teaching and maintaining skills. Behavioral skills training is a training package that includes description, modeling, in situ or role play rehearsal, and feedback. Skills trained through the behavioral skills training approach are acquired with greater competency and are better maintained. Additionally, using behavior skills training can set the stage for ongoing competency checks to ensure treatment fidelity. Use of the behavioral skills training approach can ensure better acquisition of skills by education professionals, result in higher levels of treatment integrity, and reduce the overall time spent training staff. In this skill-building workshop, attendees will learn how to develop and deliver behavioral skills training as well as design ongoing procedural integrity systems.

  • Upon completion of the session attendees will be able to name and describe the 6 steps of behavior skills training.
  • Upon completion of the session attendees will be able to design a behavioral skills training session.
  • Upon completion of the session attendees will be able to implement behavioral skills training.
