Everything you need to present this PD yourself — no prep, no subscription, no per-seat fees.
What do I get?
Two complete editions, each with an editable deck in PowerPoint and Google Slides, full speaker notes, and four companion documents.
Do I need special software?
No. PowerPoint or free Google Slides for the deck; Word or Google Docs for the companions.
Can I edit and brand it?
Yes. The deck and participant handout are white-label — add your school or district name.

No. It teaches the decision-making system underneath any tool, so it works with whatever you already use.

By the end of this PD, participants will:
- Spot untrustworthy data — recognize how multi-rater collection can make an objective-looking graph untrustworthy, and find where disagreement hides.
- Write definitions that hold — operational definitions that pass the "substitute test," so every adult scores a goal the same way.
- Build a calibration routine — who scores, on what cadence, and how drift gets caught, in a way a department can actually maintain.
- Read the trend, not the Tuesday — use a decision rule to tell signal from noise and know when the data warrants a change.
- Turn data into a decision — run a four-question protocol that ends in one deliberate move, with an owner and a date.
- Leave with two routines — one for calibrating measurement, one for reviewing decisions — plus a plan to sustain them.
Built for the people doing the work.
Special education teams — case managers, SLPs, paraprofessionals, counselors and social workers, and the administrators who lead them.
