Much of the research on Response to Intervention focuses on prevention of academic and behavioral difficulties. Despite the best research-based efforts, some students need intensive instructional interventions to become proficient — services commonly referred to as Tier III services.

In this 90-minute recorded audio conference, three nationally recognized leaders in education and RTI will resolve the many difficult questions involved in providing Tier III services to struggling learners who have failed repeatedly to respond to traditional and nontraditional instruction. You and your staff will learn how Tier III instruction fits within an RTI model, as well as:

• How to differentiate between Tier II and Tier III instruction and services
• When to move from Tier II to Tier III instruction
• Which diagnostic assessments to use
• How to use progress monitor procedures
• Special education eligibility determination within RTI systems
