Overview

Intervention specialists are perhaps the most versatile teachers in the field. They must be competent to teach every curricular subject while working hard to understand the widely varied and specific needs of their students.

Exceptionalities in special needs students may be physical, learning, emotional, cognitive, developmental or a combination. As a teacher, you’ll empower your students to relate to their surroundings in a way they can understand and help them to achieve their fullest potential.

Your field experience and student teaching experience provide you with the opportunity to observe skilled intervention specialists and practice what you learn, which is a valuable stepping stone to your first job as a special education teacher.

Build skills that translate to industries outside education

While most intervention specialists work in schools with children, unique and important opportunities exist to use your education to assist young adults and adults as well.

Both government and private agencies employ trained professionals to create and coordinate transition plans to help in vocational training and job placement. Social service agencies routinely seek professionals with the expertise to teach appropriate life skills to aid individuals in the journey toward a full and independent life.

You may also decide to pursue a master’s degree school to expand your marketability into careers in social work, educational audiology, art or music therapy, occupational or physical therapy, counseling, psychology, or speech pathology.

In addition, to bolster your performance on the Ohio Assessment for Educators (OAE) Foundations of Reading assessment, a necessary component of Intervention Specialist Licensure, the program contains a sequence of four courses concentrated on reading instruction.

Moreover, upon your enrollment, you’ll be issued a free Taskstream account to keep you on track as you work to complete the requirements for your degree and intended licensure. With Taskstream, you’ll be able to see when important documentation, like background clearance check information, has been received. You’ll also be able to use Taskstream as a gateway to important information like clinical field placement information and course resources.
