Despite increased reliance on paraprofessionals in the classroom, all too often they are the forgotten members of the team they help support. This publication addresses the key issues of training and utilization of paraprofessionals. You'll explore the distinctions in the roles and responsibilities of teachers and paraprofessionals; analyze the duties performed by paraprofessionals in various settings; and review the latest state regulatory polices and procedures that effect paraprofessionals, including employment criteria, training standards, and career mobility. You'll also examine future needs of the field and get additional contacts for ESP career development.
