Foundations of Communication is a course developed in an inter-disciplinary approach between consultants at DPI in the areas of Speech and Language Pathology, Autism and Significant Cognitive Disabilities. This two-day course is an in-depth dive into language development and strategies for providers to encourage and teach communication to students who are learning to communicate. In addition, participants will become familiar with augmentative and alternate communication teaching methodologies and explore the Extended Content Standards, which are aligned to the Standard Course of Study in North Carolina. It is preferred to have a team of an SLP and ECS teachers attend as a team.
NCDPI will be offering this 2-day course 3 times across the state:
