Upcoming EYSEND Training and Seminars
Supporting Social Communication in the Early Years (part 2)
11th July
New workshop for early years SENCos, managers and early years practitioners to enable excellent support for social communication in early years settings.
I CAN’s ‘Supporting Social Communication in the Early Years’ is accessible via two live webinars, spaced a fortnight apart. Over the two sessions you will learn about typical social communication development, identifying social communication needs, strategies to support children with identified needs and have a clear understanding of your role with children with social communication difficulties.
Practical ideas for supporting families of disabled children in the Early Years
13th July
Our accessible and jargon-free course gives practitioners practical ideas about how they can support disabled children and their families. We know that very young children fall into two distinct categories: those who have presenting disabilities, and those with slowly emerging disabilities.
We are committed to offering workshops that are accessible to the widest audience possible. If you have any accessibility needs regarding this workshop, please contact training.admin@contact.org.uk as early as possible.
