The learning path provides a basic understanding of SS-OO-PP-RR and the Family 5Q,
the two frameworks utilized in Family Guided Routines Based Intervention (FGRBI).
Upon completion, individuals who work directly with families and caregivers in their
homes have the opportunity to participate in an FGRBI-focused Professional Learning
Community (PLC).
FGRBI-focused PLCs offer the opportunity for enhanced learning and practical
application of FGRBI principles and practices to ensure the consistent delivery of high-
quality Early Intervention services for all children and families in Pennsylvania,
regardless of where they live in the state.
The PLC model is designed to be interactive. Participation during PLC meetings and timely submission of all videos enhances opportunities for growth through practice, discussion, and building from real work experiences.
FGRBI-focused PLCs are designed to help Early Interventionists:
If you’re not ready to join a PLC or are waiting for an available opportunity — you can still grow by participating in Coaching Approved Trainings.
Coaching Approved Trainings (CAT) are designed to help you integrate FGRBI principles and practices with other aspects of your Early Intervention work, ensuring they are seen as cohesive rather than separate skills.
This approach promotes continuous learning and skill development, allowing you to continue growing your skills to implement FGRBI with all families and prepare to join a PLC when you’re ready.
Visit the Professional Development page for lists of Upcoming Live Learning Events and Online Courses that offer Coaching Approved Training hours.
Participation in a Professional Learning Community is a time commitment for all involved. Assurance Documents are designed to support individuals understanding what is required for successful participation prior to joining a PLC. Scheduling information and Assurance Documents can be reviewed below.
