Ripple Effects for Staff provides “just in time” professional development for teachers, counselors and other school personnel. This program trains staff on classrooms leadership, management of diversity and diverse learners and implementation best practices for evidence-based programs.
It provides a computerized method to scale and sustain effective interventions for all students year after year.

More than 1600 multi-media screens comprise 136 multi-media tutorials, which include Video True stories from dozens of teachers. The lessons can be accessed on a “need to know,” time critical basis, or can be completed in sequence. Certification is available from Ripple Effects for completion. The program has also been accredited by Long Island University, and is currently being reviewed by Teacher’s College, as the core of Dr. Robin Stern’s on-line course on Educational Leadership through Social-Emotional Competence. It can be completed for graduate credit, upon payment of additional fees. Resources offered include disk-based, rich media content, plus web-based access to additional resources, from class room posters to individual treatment plans.

How it works:The program is comprised of 136 multi-media tutorials (with video true stories from teachers) organized into three modules. The lessons can be accessed on a “need to know,” time critical basis, or can be completed in sequence. Certification is available from Ripple Effects for completion.
