The CBP model and alignment with university–school partnerships

University–school partnership best practice	Action step	Outcome	Nine essentials
Shared conceptual understanding	1. University program and school connect to establish partnership 2. University and school select leads for both settings	1. University and school formally establish partnership through Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) 2. University and school complete appropriate paperwork through the university’s internal review board (IRB) and the district research team	Essential 1, 4, 6 and 7
Mutuality in roles and relationships	1. University lead (UL) and school lead (SL) meet to discuss unique needs and challenges by conducting a Needs Assessment 2. UL and SL identify complementary strengths (resources, time, knowledge, subjects, etc.)	1. UL and SL evaluate challenges and prioritize goals 2. UL and SL identify a goal(s) for each setting (university and school) that responds to needs and leverages identified strengths	Essential 1, 3 and 8
Sound operational strategies	1. UL and SL determine participants from the university and school and what Tier(s) intervention will take place 2. UL and SL select evidenced-based interventions based on available resources and identified needs 3. UL and SL follow procedures set by IRB and district research team	1. UL and SL create an intervention protocol outlining steps to intervention across multiple tiers 2. UL and SL determine schedule to meet and monitor progress for intervention 3. UL and SL determine appropriate supports for university and school students while intervention takes place (i.e. supervision and staff onsite for acute issues)	Essential 1, 2 and 9
Evaluation of both partnership and outcomes	1. At the conclusion of the intervention, UL and SL collect data to determine implementation fidelity and program outcomes 2. If appropriate and/or desired, UL and SL present and/or publish findings	1. UL and SL evaluate partnership 2. UL and SL collaborate on findings to ensure sustainability of partnership 3. UL and SL present their findings to school staff 4. UL disseminates findings to professional associations and journals	Essential 5
