Abstract

Consultation-based programming is widely supported as a logical augmentation to the current educational service delivery system. However, despite increasing advocacy for formats that foster collaborative efforts of multidisciplinary personnel, implementation of these program formats in schools remains sporadic. This article (a) discusses a number of the conceptual principles which underpin program development, (b) proposes informal standards for ecological evaluation of specific formats, and (c) identifies factors that maximize the potential for successful installment of consultation-based programs in schools.
