The BIST consultant and the district staff determine scheduling and content. Efforts are made to tailor the consultation to the individual needs of each school. 

A typical yearly schedule

• One initial in-service (3-6 hours)
• Follow-up in-service (9 hours)
• Consultation (35-50 hours varying by building)
• Phone or e-mail consultation as needed

As you consider the BIST program options, please be aware that this is a systems change model not just a series of helpful hints. Our program is designed to provide intensive training and ongoing support to schools. While we can provide a full day introduction to the BIST model, it has limited effectiveness as a one-time presentation.
