Using our framework, building critical skills for inclusive classrooms has never been easier.

ABC's Inclusion Training for Teachers, Targeted Collaboration for Impact (TCI), helps educators (especially those with no prior special education expertise) work together to identify, share, and meet the needs of students with disabilities.  Over 5 weeks, through a combination of self-paced content and live sessions, educators hone the skills research tells us are necessary to get results for diverse learners.

  • Understand and connect with each student's potential;
  • Build professional partnerships to set and meet robust student goals;
  • Communicate for consistency across stakeholders;

  • Much more!

“Even as a school psychologist with more than a decade of experience with consultation and collaboration in schools, ABC's Targeted Collaboration course provided me with many opportunities to reflect on and improve my practice. I appreciated the frameworks, the concrete tools, and the opportunity to share my learning with like-minded colleagues.”
