Description
This advanced workshop will focus on scaling up problem solving/RTI (PS/RTI) beyond a single building level. Successful implementation of PS/RTI is driven by
professional development, supported by technical assistance and coaching, and informed by data. Participants will be provided with information and experiences to (a) develop a blueprint for a multiyear implementation plan, (b)construct a blueprint of policies and procedures for multisite implementation, (c) identify the critical skills required of personnel to implement and scale up PS/RTI, and (d) use case studies and skill assessments to ensure that multisite teams possess the skills necessary for successful implementation.
