Along with the valuable professional relationships you will develop, The Idaho Special Education Mentor Network courses through BSU culminates in an Institutional Recommendation for a Consulting Teacher Endorsement. The consulting teacher coursework offered through BSU provides the necessary skills and knowledge for special education teachers to work within a response-to-intervention (RTI) and/or positive behavior support (PBS) model within their schools. Idaho State Department of Education is currently expanding its use of both of these frameworks across K-12 settings. Special education teachers who complete the consulting teacher coursework will be uniquely positioned to play an important role in facilitating the implementation of these frameworks within their schools. For more information about RTI in Idaho, please visit the Idaho State Department of Education RTI website.
