Improving Tricky Transitions

Give your students the predictability they need to transition with confidence — and fewer meltdowns.

This course is designed for classroom educators working with students who struggle with transitions between activities, environments, or tasks. You'll learn evidence-based strategies grounded in ABA principles that reduce transition-related challenging behavior before it starts. Led by Morgan van Diepen, M.Ed., BCBA.

What You'll Learn

• Understand why transitions ask three hard things of students simultaneously
• Use visual warnings and timers to prepare students for upcoming changes
• Apply the Easy, Easy, Hard behavioral momentum technique to smooth transitions
• Set realistic expectations using developmental data from neurotypical peers
• Respond calmly and effectively when transitions still go sideways

Designed for general and special educators supporting neurodiverse learners in any classroom setting.
