Bill Summary

Relative to special education training. Education.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing law to require that paraprofessionals and teacher assistants assigned to work with a teacher who has primary oversight of a student requiring special education receive training in student behavior management within 60 days of their assignment. The bill also allows school boards to provide such training to other employees, including transportation employees. The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, in consultation with the University of Massachusetts, will develop an online training that school districts can use to fulfill these requirements, and the training will be provided to every school district free of charge.
