AAC Foundations Team Training
Education Service Center Region 13
12.00 CPE Credits
$90.00
This workshop series is designed for professionals (especially TEAMS!) working with students with complex communication needs (CCN) who need Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) systems. We will demystify AAC and empower communication partners with a foundation so that no matter which “specific” app, device, training or technique presents itself, teams feel prepared.
This training emphasizes a Learn, Try, Apply approach. Learn: Teams will develop common background knowledge and learn a 5 step process for how to organize and prioritize information related to Augmentative Communication decision making.Try: Teams will explore and practice successful intervention strategies.
Apply: Teams will use homework, case studies, feedback and reflection to support meaningful, multi-modal communication outcomes.
Participants will receive poster-sized, color-coded communication boards with 160 core vocabulary words to help engineer the classroom and provide modeling/aided language stimulation/receptive input as well as a set of student-sized communication boards. Participants will have access to an online toolkit supporting continued skill development.
