BEST in CLASS (Behavioral, Emotional, and Social Training: Competent Learners Achieving School Success) aims to support teachers in preventing and addressing preschool children’s challenging behaviors and building positive teacher-child interactions. The purpose of this effectiveness replication study was to examine the impacts of the BEST in CLASS Tier 2 teacher training and coaching model as it was implemented with typical end users in naturally occurring conditions. This session provided an overview of the BEST in CLASS intervention and preliminary outcome data from the effectiveness study providing insights into the challenges with scale-up and sustainability of interventions.
