Tools & Tips for Monitoring & Increasing Staff Fidelity

Ensuring high levels of fidelity when implementing treatments is essential to maximizing intervention’s success. For example, high-quality interventions, when implemented with low fidelity, can be less effective, take more time to work, or lead to increased staff and student frustration. Particularly in special education settings, where multiple staff are expected to fluently implement a variety of interventions with students with complex academic and behavioral programs, having high levels of fidelity increases the likelihood of students meeting their IEP goals. This session equips special education staff to use evidence-based-practices to monitor and evaluate staff fidelity of treatment implementation. Participants will learn how to use the Performance-Diagnostic Checklist-Human Services (PDC-HS) as well as other fidelity measures to assess staff fidelity. Participants will learn to use the PDC-HS to determine possible interventions to increase fidelity. Participants will learn key components to developing their own fidelity checklists for academic and behavioral interventions.
