Standards Self-Assessment Tool

The Standards Self-Assessment Tool is intended to encourage your reflective thinking about the standards of a technical assistance specialist. There are four areas of standards (technical assistance approaches, the technical assistance process, professionalism, systems knowledge). Under each area and standard you will find knowledge and competencies. You will complete this self-assessment process in stages to evaluate your skills and identify areas of strength, areas of steady progress, and areas of opportunity in your work. Then, develop goals for your work and plan your professional development. Administrators can also use this tool to conduct performance appraisals and to encourage staff members’ commitment to ongoing professional growth and learning.
