PBIS Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 Manuals are used to help schools implement a multi-tiered system of Positive Behavior Support. The International version of the Tier 1 Manual includes extensive content from my work in Australia. Behavior Principles is an essential booklet for educators or anyone interested in a brief and easy to understand guide to the science of human behavior. It is also published in Spanish.
Peer-reviewed research studies, journal publications, and magazine articles are listed below.
Recently created three online Certified PBIS Trainer certificate courses.
