The CELL Implementation Model

Participatory Adult Learning Strategy
CELL uses an evidence‐based approach to training and technical assistance called the Participatory Adult Learning Strategy (PALS) because no intervention practice is likely to be learned and adopted if the methods and strategies used to train are not effective.

PALS Checklist***

The trainer, coach or technical assistance provider uses the checklist to review and think about their understanding and implementation of the CELL model. After reflection, the trainer, coach or technical assistance provider may determine a need to provide more illustrations or practices to support the teacher’s or parent’s understanding and application of the CELL model.
