Texas Behavior Support Initiative
The Texas Behavior Support Initiative (TBSI)
The Texas Behavior Support Initiative (TBSI) is a state-level training that meets the requirements mandated by Texas Education Code §37.0021 and Texas Administrative Code §89.1053.
Who should take this training?
· Campus core teams consisting of a campus administrator or designee and any general or special education personnel likely to use restraint and/or who implement time-out based on requirements established in a student’s IEP and/or BIP
TBSI is completely separate from the CPI training and is an on-demand training provided by the state that is now housed on the TEALearn (Canvas) platform. The criteria have not changed, but the training has been updated. Here is the link to the training: https://tier.tea.texas.gov/TBSI.
The TBSI training can be done before or after the CPI training, that is not specified; however, the TBSI training does not take the place of CPI and therefore both should be complete by any staff who may be working with students displaying extreme behaviors.
This training is worth 3 hours of Continuing Education Credits. Please submit your DATED complete certificate to Shay Avants no later than August 1, 2022.
