IOA: Response to Intervention 60 Days to Complete PD Credit: 45 - $195 Grad Credit: 3 - $570 RTI is a process schools can and should use to help students who are struggling with academics or behavior. Even though RTI is primarily linked to special education and the early identification of learning problems, RTI is not just for students in special education. RTI is for all students and is based on the premise that a student might be struggling due to instruction or the curriculum in the past, or in the current classroom. Every teacher will have students who are struggling and whether it’s short term or long term, RTI is a valuable tool.  If taking for Graduate Credit, an additional $125 per graduate credit is required. Once you have registered for the course, you will receive additional information on how to enroll with Concordia University Chicago to obtain Graduate Credit Hours.
