Tier 2 Continuum of Interventions Beyond CICO

This training session is designed to help school teams consider their data to identify group interventions to best meet the needs of their students. The focus will be on the development and installation of Social Academic Instructional Groups (SAIGs). The development of SAIG’s will take into consideration the structure of the group, skills which need to be taught, skills required of the staff, location, and frequency of the group(s). Schools will be supported in the process of exploring and applying critical features of Tier II interventions. Teams will learn about the systems necessary to support interventions and the data used to assess student outcomes and intervention fidelity.

If you are looking to install foundational Tier II Data, Systems and Practices, visit our Tier II Team Training (Days 1 & 2) training content page.

Who Should Participate:

This training is designed for school staff intended to engage in coaching, coordination of facilitation of groups or mentoring.

  • Coordinators: School staff intending on being the ones who oversee/manage groups or mentoring

  • District/building based coaches specifically focused on supporting Tier II

  • Facilitators: School staff intending on being the ones to deliver or facilitate groups or mentoring

Objectives:

  • Understand how to apply the critical features of Tier II to groups and mentoring

  • Use Tier I data, Tier II data, and other referral sources to identify students in need of groups or mentoring

  • Use data for decision-making and on-going progress monitoring, knowing when to add more interventions, and how/when to exit students from groups or mentoring

  • Check for implementation fidelity of groups and mentoring

  • Be ready to design your next group
