EVERYONE needs to complete, sign and submit (email/fax/mail) the "Skill Assessment Agreement" form. 

IF you want your report sent to anyone other than you, also sign the "Release of Information" form, telling the instructor who else (besides you) you want the report to be sent to. 

Choose ONE file below and answer ALL the questions in it.

You'll do this BEFORE AND AFTER your course, using the SAME file.

Choose the age group based on how comfortable you feel responding to 
challenging behavior.

Choose the format, Word or Text based on what kind of device you will be using.

Here are the Chapter Practice Exercises in editable docs you can type into.

These exercises help you translate learning into practice and are possibly the most beneficial part of the entire course!

WHEN TO DO THEM?

IF you do these, you MUST (and have agreed in your signed agreement that you will) NOT look at the answer key in the book until after you have given and submitted your own answers. We have our ways of knowing if you did and will share any suspicion this was done in your skill assessment report, which could invalidate the results or have negative consequences for you.

WHO SHOULD DO THEM?

- ALL PARENTS need to complete these as part of the skill assessment and instructor review process.

- If you are attending for professional training hours (social workers, counselors, foster parents, etc.) you are not required to do them, although they will help your skill improvement and ability to translate skills into practice. Your training hours do not include the time to answer these questions.

WHICH FILE FORMAT TO CHOOSE?

- IF YOU HAVE A WINDOWS PC:
     - You can download and extract all the files in the first ZIP file.
OR- You can download each Word file (if you don't know how to unzip files.)

- IF YOU ARE ON A NON-WINDOWS DEVICE:
     - Download the plain text files (filenames end with ".txt")

These are questions you answer at the end of each chapter to determine if you learned/understood the content of that section.
 
- PARENTS, you are not required to complete these as part of the assessment and review process, although it is a nice document to review after the course.

- If you are attending for professional training hours (social workers, counselors, foster parents, etc.) you are required to do the Post-Tests in order for us to issue you a certificate that will be accepted by your licensing board. Normally, we don't score or give feedback on these, but if you are already getting a skill assessment report and want instructor feedback, we'll score and comment on these, too.
