DMPS Collaborative Problem Solving Process (CPSP)

This course will introduce you to the DMPS CPSP, which is a structured, data-driven process that is critical to a Multi-Tiered System of Supports in implementing and evaluating supports that integrate academic and behavioral instruction and interventions. Equity and inclusion are central to the CPSP, as the structured process creates the opportunity to include the voices of students, families, and the community as authentic education partners. Equity, inclusiveness, continuous improvement, and evidence-based decision-making should be foundational to all DMPS structures.
