Behavior Coordinator Training 2026-2027: Interventions Through the Tiers

Every campus needs a clear, tiered system for supporting student behavior — one that catches problems early and matches the right level of support to the right student, without over-relying on exclusionary discipline.

Our Intervention Through the Tiers course was designed to give educators a comprehensive understanding of behavior intervention within a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) framework. Participants learn how to design, implement, and monitor effective behavioral interventions across all three tiers, with an emphasis on proactive, data-driven decision-making at every level.

Here's what we help you with:

1. Foundations of Tiered Behavioral Support: Prevention, Early Identification, and Data-Driven Decision-Making
2. Tier 1: Universal Prevention and Schoolwide Expectations
3. Tier 2: Targeted Group Interventions and Early Identification
4. Tier 3: Intensive, Individualized Interventions
5. Conducting Functional Behavior Assessments (FBAs) and Developing Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs)

Our behavior specialists combine practical examples with applied learning to help you build strong Tier I systems that reduce the need for more intensive interventions, while equipping you to design and monitor targeted supports when students need more. You'll leave with the skills to evaluate intervention effectiveness using multiple data sources and adjust supports as needed.

Description:
This course offers behavior intervention strategies within a tiered support framework, such as Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Participants will learn how to design, implement, and monitor effective behavioral interventions across all three tiers: universal (Tier 1), targeted (Tier 2), and intensive (Tier 3). The course emphasizes proactive, data-driven approaches to supporting student behavior, fostering positive school climates, and providing consistent, effective support for every student. Participants will gain practical skills in functional behavior assessments (FBA), behavior intervention plan (BIP) development, progress monitoring, and collaborative problem-solving with students, families, and staff.

Key Takeaways:

• Foundations of Tiered Behavioral Support: Understanding prevention, early identification, data-driven decision-making, and progress monitoring across the MTSS framework.
• Tier 1 — Universal Prevention: Building schoolwide expectations that reduce the need for more intensive interventions.
• Tier 2 — Targeted Interventions: Designing and monitoring small-group interventions for students who need more support.
• Tier 3 — Intensive Interventions: Implementing individualized, intensive interventions with fidelity.
• FBA and BIP Development: Conducting functional behavior assessments and developing effective behavior intervention plans.
• Data-Driven Monitoring: Using multiple data sources to evaluate intervention effectiveness and adjust supports.
• Collaborative Problem-Solving: Engaging students, families, and staff in team-based solutions.

Behavior coordinators will leave with additional tools to effectively manage referrals while fostering student growth and minimizing disruption to learning.
