CLASS Reliable Observer Training

This session will build an in-depth understanding of the Pre-K Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS). Participants will learn to accurately observe and code teacher child interactions utilizing the CLASS tool in preschool age classrooms. Explicit instructions and guided practice using authentic classroom videos helps those attending prepare to take and pass the CLASS reliability test following this event. Those who do so are certified to use the CLASS for one year. This training is directed at those who supervise, mentor, and train teachers in Head Start classrooms.

We're looking for a few good trainers!


WSA is trying to put together a trainer notebook. We are trying to find the best trainers you use and any recommendations for good trainers for our conferences. We hope to share the completed notebook with all our members so that your local program can use the notebook to find the best available trainers as well. Please send the names and contacts for trainers to Katy at katy@wsaheadstarteceap.com
