Abstract

Educator preparation programs (EPP) have a vested interest in their completers’ success. Given concerns surrounding effectiveness and attrition, some believe EPPs should offer induction support. This session reports findings from support offered by one special education preparation program using social media. Participants reported multiple benefits from this faculty facilitated support.
