Coaching Defined

Coaching is the active and iterative delivery of:
◦ (a) prompts that increase successful behavior, and
◦ (b) corrections that decrease unsuccessful behavior.
◦ Coaching is done by someone with credibility and
experience with the target skill(s)
◦ Coaching is done on-site, in real time
◦ Coaching is done after initial training
◦ Coaching is done repeatedly (e.g. monthly)
◦ Coaching intensity is adjusted to need
Outcomes of Coaching
Fluency with trained skills
 Adaptation of trained concepts/skills to
local contexts and challenges

 And new challenges that arise
Rapid redirection from miss-applications
 Increased fidelity of overall
implementation
 Improved sustainability

 Most often due to ability to increase coaching
intensity at critical points in time.

Considerations for Next Steps

Build Political Commitment
◦ Policy recommendations
 Send to every district
 Send to state department
◦ Administrator Academy
◦ Summer institute for coaches/trainers
Considerations for Next Steps

Leadership Team
 Do we have the right people on the team?
 Do we have the administrative representatives we
need?
 Do we have the FTE for “coordination” that will
allow leadership team decisions to produce action?
Considerations for Next Steps

Trainer Capacity
 What is needed to build trainer capacity at
district/regional level?
 Consider both initial training, and on-going training
 Do districts/ regions have the capacity for annual training
as part of Fall orientation?
 Do districts/ regions have the capacity for advanced
training in behavior support and data-based decisionmaking.
Considerations for Next Steps

Coaching Capacity
 Build coaching job description
 Build coaching expectations/ ratio recommendation
 Annual trainer/coaching training (forum)
Considerations for Next Steps

Behavioral Expertise
 State- very strong
 District/ Region: unclear
 School building:
 Is there someone who can do a simple FBA?
 Do schools have team structure to use FBA info for BIP
design and implementation?
 Do schools have information system needed to manage BIP?
Considerations for Next Steps

Evaluation
 State/ District/ School evaluation plan
 Measures of fidelity
 Measures of student behavior outcomes
