Behavior Management Institute Fall 2026
September 09, 2026 — October 31, 2026
An Institute for DYCD funded organizations
In order to register for this event you need to or first.
It is said that little can get accomplished without behavior management in programs, as it affects engagement, learning, efficiency, safety, and overall program efficacy. This multi-day, multi-format institute is designed for Site Directors and Supervisors seeking to establish a site-wide approach to behavior management from day one.
It provides a solid foundational understanding of behavior management principles and explores advanced tools and strategies tailored to afterschool programming. Through interactive learning and hands-on scenario workshopping, leaders will practice skills to train and support their staff, respond to challenging scenarios, and build a culture of respect and safety for all. The institute includes:
- September 9, 2026, 10:00am-12:00pm 2-hour virtual workshop
- October 8, 2026, 9:30am-1:30pm half-day in-person institute
- Late October 1-hour virtual follow-up session
This institute is intended for DYCD funded organizations. DYCD Staff are welcome. This professional development opportunity is provided at no cost to you but has a value of $1200 for DYCD. If you register for and are subsequently unable to attend this session you are responsible for cancelling your registration or risk being waitlisted for future events.
