The focus of the training was on equipping participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively implement a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) in the general education classroom. The study aimed to examine the effectiveness of BST in enhancing the participants' understanding of BIP components, procedural guidelines, and successful implementation strategies. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the impact of BST on teacher and staff training within the context of special education and inclusive classrooms. The implications of this study are significant for educational institutions striving to improve inclusive practices and support students with behavioral challenges effectively.
