The Bridge Training is being hosted by BLaST Intermediate Unit 17 on Eduplanet. Successful completion of the four training modules and post-tests will provide participants with a SAP K-12 certificate that enables them to serve on elementary through high school SAP teams. Any questions – please contact your Regional Coordinator. To get started: provide your name, email address, school district-building/agency, and email original SAP training certificate to your PNSAS Regional Coordinator. A map listing Regional Coordinators and contact information is available here.
SAP Training Components and Indicators
SAP Training Components and Indicators
Over the years, in Pennsylvania, SAP best practice has focused on the original handbook of Components and Indicators. There are nine essential components of SAP practice, which include: Policy and Procedures, Communications, Referral Mechanisms, Parent Participation, Team Planning, Intervention and Recommendations, Follow-up and Support, Training, Outcome Indicators and Evaluation. For each component area there are specific performance indicators and checklists that school SAP teams can utilize to check for fidelity of the program. SAP teams will benefit from reviewing this information.
