Originally scheduled as “PBIS in Practice” with Rob Horner, this special edition of the webinar brought together Professor Jeffrey Chan and Tracey Lawson to explore the history, evolution, and contemporary challenges of Positive Behaviour Support—particularly in the Australian context.
The conversation covered:
- The origins of PBS and its roots
- How PBS has been implemented and interpreted in Australia
- Key lessons learned from practice and policy
- What the future might look like for PBS professionals
This is a must-watch for anyone involved in behaviour support, disability services, or education.
