GREAT Advanced Session today at the BCIU.  Several participants shared that they have been using the "Self & Match" system for more than 4 years and have seen tremendous growth with their students.  Such an invigorating day!

Amazing, fun, interactive group at our "Introduction to 'Self & Match"" training today at the Bucks County IU!  Eclectic group including Special Education teachers, School Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Special Education Supervisors, Instructional Assistants, and a General Education teacher.  Was wonderful returning to "our roots" and hearing about how far "Self & Match" has come over the past 8 years!  Looking forward to our advanced session tomorrow!

Jamie visited Discovery School today to learn more about their school-wide "Self & Match" system.  It was very impressive!  Collaborated with the principal about ways to optimize their system.  Can't wait to share information with others regarding the system in place at Discovery!

A school in Southern California has adopted "Self & Match" as part of their Tier 1 school-wide intervention.  The Director of the school attended the "Intro to Self & Match" Workshop in January and then meshed it with some of his own ideas to develop a well defined school-wide program based on the "Self & Match" system.  The Discovery School is an educational program that provides research based therapeutic, academic, and behavioral strategies to facilitate positive and lasting change in students.

Today, we presented to an amazing group of Behavior Analysts from all throughout the world.  At our workshop, we had 2 participants from Taiwan, 2 participants from Canada, and several participants from all over America. The training was well-received and we are eager to hear about new "Self & Match" systems that may start popping up throughout the United States and beyond!

It wasn't until we arrived at the convention center that one of our "Self & Match" participants noted that our outfits matched our manual!  No, we did not plan that!
