The purpose of progress monitoring is to identify steps the child is making to successfully participate in their everyday activities and routines. Effective progress monitoring begins with the assurance that identified outcomes/goals are functional and measurable, followed by identifying an efficient plan for data collection. In this course, participants will identify outcomes/goals that are functional and measurable and identify a process for collecting data. The process will include determining what data is being collected, who will collect the data and when, where, and how the data will be collected.
