MTSS Tier 2 Check-In/Check-Out (CICO): The Fundamentals and Tools Webinar
Educators involved in Tier 2 problem solving teams were invited to attend a live virtual overview session on the Check-In/Check-Out (CICO) intervention on March 10th, 2022. CICO is an evidence-based Tier 2 intervention that enhances Tier 1 universal supports in K-12 schools through increased structure and positive interactions with adults throughout the day via instruction and practice in self-monitoring of behavior and social-emotional competencies. This training outlines how to create a program and will provide tools and resources for implementation. See below for a recording of the live session.
