Case Study: Timberlane Regional School District achieves streamlined, personalized on-demand PD for paraprofessionals with Vector Solutions

High-Quality PD for Paraprofessionals in Timberlane Regional School District

Timberlane Regional School District faced a recurring scramble to provide meaningful professional development for about 125 special education paraprofessionals on days when teachers had preplanned PD and needed a reliable way to onboard and train staff on special education laws, safety topics, and behavior management. Director of Special Education Elizabeth Rincon selected the Exceptional Child Online Professional Development System from Vector Solutions to address inconsistent, last-minute training and to provide targeted, on-demand courses for paraprofessionals, teachers and administrators.

Vector Solutions’ Exceptional Child system delivered on-demand, web-based courses, automated new-hire enrollment and customized reporting, reducing administrative time spent organizing training and ensuring consistent coverage for roughly 125 paraprofessionals. Timberlane reported a smooth rollout, positive feedback, the ability for paraprofessionals to complete required work remotely on “Blizzard Bag Days” with printable certificates, and new reporting features added by Vector Solutions to meet the district’s needs — improving compliance, personalization, and measurable training documentation.
