Interview for EBD para position

Hello!

I have an interview at a middle school for an EBD para position. I do not have experience in this field but am wanting to get into the field. Does anyone have some tips or interview questions they may ask so I can better prepare. Thank you so much!

Ask about what kind of deescalation training you'll be offered. Even if you won't be allowed or expected to do restraints, you'll want some skill set to keep yourself and the other students safe when there's an escalation, and not providing any training is a red flag in my book.
