  19. Steps to keep in mind • Use the correct fidelity checklist: www.actforyouth.net/capptools • Mark the fidelity list as a Master list (agency/date) Sample: Adaptation Master List - FIDELITY CHECKLIST CAMBA(11/13) • Be specific in describing the modification • Explain why you are making the change • Mark it as approved (last column: Yes) • Submit to Jutta for approval before implementing

  20. Summary • Adaptations are unavoidable, even needed → plan ahead • A master list will simplify the paperwork (less writing)and direct educators to make the same changes • It documents your changes correctly → improves evaluation reports • It saves time! • Remember to send it to the COE for review
