Introduction
An intervention specialist is specifically trained and certified to teach students with learning disabilities that affect their academic success in general education content. Intervention specialists are knowledgeable about the general education curriculum, modified curricula, and intervention strategies to support instruction in academics and behavior. They know the content of each learner's special education program and make accommodations and modifications to provide access to educational content, instruction, and assessments. Intervention specialists may collaboratively plan with general education teachers and collaboratively implement accommodations for students with disabilities. Intervention specialists and general education teachers often teach together, and this is referred to as co-teaching.
Applicants who currently hold an initial teaching license in SPED Interventionist may apply for admission to the M.Ed. in Special Education Interventionist program. Persons licensed in other areas may take graduate level courses for an add-on endorsement in either K-8 or 6-12 Interventionist licensure. Applicants who do not have a current teaching license must hold a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university and must meet all initial licensure clinical practice program requirements, including a semester of residency.
