That demand is fueled today by a nationwide education reform movement that calls for paraprofessionals to help teachers make classroom instruction more effective , efficient and tailored to the individual needs of students . The topics will cover : basic principles of applied behavior analysis ; the application of these principles to children ADHD , ODD , and CD8 ; writing behavioral objectives ; training parents and paraprofessionals to execute operant and respondent based treatments ; programming for generalization ; working as a behavior analyst in a CASSP system ; and legal and ethical issues in the treatment of children in a diverse society . Parents had difficulty staying current with the lessons if they did not attend a group meeting to pick up the next week 's packet of materials , because they then either had to do two weeks of lessons the following week or required an extra home visit from the paraprofessional to deliver the packet . A Thousand Tomorrows is an excellent tool for training professionals and paraprofessionals to address these issues , as well as for helping couples struggling with Alzheimer 's to understand that they are not alone . St. John has put in place paraprofessional training and is using Title I funds to pay tuition to a two-year college as an incentive for paraprofessionals to start working on earning degrees .
