Praise for The Supervisor Training Curriculum

“What separates the Reid, Parsons and Greene Supervisor Training Curriculum from others is its emphasis on competency-based outcomes. Upon completion, management staff can demonstrate the skills necessary to improve and maintain exemplary staff performance and can do it with the same positive support values that are emphasized throughout in their earlier Positive Behavior Support Training Curriculum.” R.M. “Duke” Schell, PhD, BCBA-D, Director of Psychology, J. Iverson Riddle Developmental Center, Morganton, North Carolina

“The clarity with which the Curriculum and the Trainee Guide is written will invite users to access the material repeatedly and provide trainees with valuable information regarding how to motivate staff and improve staff performance. The Curriculum requires participants to actively practice and perform skills to complete the training, thereby emphasizing both performance and competency-based training methodology. This curriculum should be the cornerstone of supervision training for all human service providers.” Frank L. Bird, MEd, BCBA, Vice President & Chief Clinical Officer, Melmark Inc., Melmark New England
