Are Career and Technical Schools responsible for documenting the 20 hours of training annually for paraprofessionals who work in their schools?
The school entity employing the paraprofessionals is ultimately responsible for documenting appropriate training of paraprofessional staff. The sending school entity is responsible for the provision of FAPE for individual eligible students placed by the school entity in the CTC. Therefore, the CTCs and sending school entity should consult and maintain documentation of the provision of 20 hours of professional development for the paraprofessional requirements under Chapter 14.
