Positive Behavior Support Intensive Training

Positive Behavior Support (PBS) is framework that helps people make positive changes in their lives. PBS uses person-centered values and the principles of behavior to improve quality of life and decrease challenging social interactions. When implemented at a systems level, PBS can also improve workforce related issues related to decreases in staff turnover and workers compensation. PBS plans are led by children and adults who choose to participate and involve a team approach that helps people build their strengths. The six trainings on this page are part of an annual PBS Intensive training that is meant to introduce the key elements of tier 3 PBS.  Sending a small number of staff through this training will help teams implementing organization-wide PBS to better understand the underlying elements of PBS across all three tiers.
