DON'T MISS OUT... APRIL 1, 2010
Register now for this timely opportunity to be trained by Dr. Ron Miles,
nationally acclaimed author and speaker, through this 90 minute live presentation on the web.

The issue of resistant behavior in children and adolescents is not a new issue for America’s educators. However, increasingly classroom teachers, counselors and administrators report concerns within two areas. First, many educators believe there is an increase in defiant and oppositional behavior among students. Second, they also believe - based on referrals for disciplinary action and special services - that extremely resistant behavior is being observed at earlier ages.

This webinar will focus on three distinct areas related to student resistance:
