Abstract	This report describes activities and accomplishments of a 3-year federally supported project to develop, implement, and evaluate a model for training paraprofessionals to support students with disabilities in general education classrooms and those who direct and supervise their work. Training materials were developed with a high degree of replicability. so that novice instructors could use them. The report first describes these training manuals, which comprise four 12-18 hour courses on paraeducator entry-level training, supporting students with challenging behaviors, supporting students with severe behaviors, and teacher leadership (working with paraeducators). The remainder of the report chronicles: (1) the project's objectives and their status; (2) project products; (3) ongoing activities; (4) continuing concerns; and (5) assurances of distribution. A total of 13 products are individually described. Ongoing activities include a Web site that includes a paraeducator resource and learning center. Discussion of continuing concerns addresses: data collection and impact on personnel and students; challenges of teacher leadership training; Web based and distance learning options; and inadvertent impact. Appended are sample Web pages and a sample quiz with scoring and computer-generated responses. (DB)
