Basic Information
Learn how to complete the Basic Information section of a Simple BIP, including plan details, target settings, team members, and implementation information.
Report Name
Enter a name for the Simple BIP and click Save. This field is required and must be saved before additional sections can be completed.
Report Type (Optional)
Select a report title from the available options. The selected title will appear in the header of the PDF report.
Reason for Referral
Briefly describe who requested the plan, the concerns being addressed, the team members involved, and the types of supports or recommendations provided.
Example: North Union High School referred Adam to the MTSS PLC Team for a Simple Behavior Intervention Plan to address disruptive classroom behaviors. The team reviewed past behavior patterns and discussed positive behavior support strategies to implement across Adam's educational settings. This report documents the team's discussion and recommendations.
Student Motivations
List known preferences, interests, motivators, and/or hypotheses about the function or purpose of the behavior identified through team discussion. This information can help guide reinforcement and replacement behavior planning.
Report Date
Defaults to the date the report was created but can be updated if the plan is completed later. This date appears in the header of the PDF report.
Next Team Meeting
Enter the date of the next team meeting. This date will appear as Next Meeting in the header of the PDF report.
