Mastery: proficient (Level 3)(based on Post-Baccalaureate Certificate)

  • Comprehensive IEP development — lead the full cycle of assessment, goal-writing, implementation, and annual review for a diverse caseload of elementary students with disabilities, operating independently within legal and ethical standards.
  • Differentiated instructional programming — design and deliver multi-modal, evidence-based lessons across academic subjects that respond to individual cognitive, sensory, and behavioral profiles without supervisory direction.
  • Complex behavior support plans — independently develop, implement, and evaluate individualized behavior intervention strategies, including functional behavior assessments, for students with significant social-emotional disabilities.
  • Curriculum modification and Universal Design for Learning — adapt district-wide elementary curricula and assessments using UDL principles to ensure equitable access for all learners across multiple disability categories.
  • Assistive technology evaluation and integration — assess student technology needs, recommend appropriate devices, and train paraprofessionals and families in their use within an inclusive school environment.
  • Multi-disciplinary team collaboration — facilitate productive communication among school psychologists, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and general educators to coordinate holistic support plans.
  • Compliance and records management — oversee accurate, complete, and legally defensible documentation systems for all students on caseload, ensuring alignment with IDEA, FERPA, and district policy.
  • Data-driven instructional decision making — analyze formative and summative assessment data using office suite and spreadsheet software to identify trends, adjust interventions, and report outcomes to stakeholders.
  • Family and community advocacy — serve as a knowledgeable liaison for families navigating special education systems, providing guidance on rights, resources, and transition planning for elementary-age students.
  • Non-routine problem solving — resolve complex, high-stakes challenges such as eligibility disputes, placement decisions, or escalating behavioral crises by applying critical thinking and professional judgment autonomously.
