Some students with complex communication needs go through their whole school career without ever getting a chance to express themselves. They must have the same opportunities to fully participate in all aspects of their educational, social, and vocational experiences. Come join us for a full day of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) professional development consisting of modeling, vocabulary selection, assessibility, visual supports, data collection, implementation and IEP goals/obectives to support students struggling to communicate effectively. EVERYONE can communicate....so spring into AAC, presume competence, get started, and never give up. The intended audience includes teachers, therapists, administrators, paraprofessionals and families/guardians of students with disabilities. FREE REGISTRATION - There is no cost to attend this professional development. Seating is limited so register early. Please only register if you know you can attend. Make sure you are registering for the correct location. Sessions are first come first served. LUNCH - Lunch will be ON YOUR OWN. You will have 1 hour.
