This comprehensive three-hour course is designed for educators, childcare providers, and professionals working with neurodiverse children. By completing this course, you will gain a deep understanding of the different reasons children may exhibit behavioural responses and learn effective strategies to support them and alleviate stress.
During the course, you will:
– Explore the four different functions of behaviours and develop the skills to recognize and understand them.
– Gain insights into how the neurodiverse brain thinks and responds differently, and how communication styles and difficulties can contribute to stressful behaviours.
– Learn practical strategies to support neurodiverse children, including the use of visual supports, which play a crucial role in creating an inclusive environment.
The training will feature practical examples, plenty of time for questions, and discussions of real-life scenarios that you may encounter in your setting. Additionally, there will be a hands-on demonstration of using visual supports, allowing you to witness their effectiveness firsthand.
