Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to learn about the history and philosophy of Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports. The good news is, this program is nothing new. It is based on years of experience and research, and is backed by positive results in thousands of schools. The overall philosophy is child-centered, reward-based, and designed to improve relationships; chances are, you're already a PBIS practitioner and didn't even know it!
The online PPES PBIS training system is based on the honor system. Complete the four basic training modules, a short quiz, and you'll be awarded eternal glory (and a slick certificate). Your students and peers will stand in amazement at your teaching superpowers.
