Lessons Learned During Implementation
• Build districts capacity – must have trained faculty and need to develop institutional knowledge.
• Take your time with planning and implementation.
• Watch out for over zealous teams that may not have a complete understanding of the PBS process.
• The process is the most important aspect of implementation.
• Targeted and Intensive Team interventions are difficult to develop but are essential.
• Train, train and retrain. Constantly revisit the training of faculty and students through out the year – a once and done training will not sustain itself.
