This session focuses on a tiered coaching model designed to meet the specific needs of early childhood special education (ECSE) itinerant practioners who service young children with disabilities in general education classrooms including community programs. Attendees of this session will gain access to nuts and bolts of a state-wide itinerant training, the Special Education Itinerant Teacher (SEIT) Academy. The SEIT Academy is designed to promote and support the implementation of a special education itinerant model within early childhood programs as part of the continuum of services for preschool children with disabilities. Come learn about the benefits of tiered coaching that increases the effectiveness of professional development and supporting itinerant practioners establishing and/or enhancing the implementation of itinerant services within their school districts.
