Would you like to know more about decision making process around AAC for your learners with communication impairment?
In this online workshop, Joanna Courtney, CALL's Specialist Speech and Language Therapist will take a case study based approach to exploring the decision making and multi-disciplinary collaboration involved in successfully following the AAC National Core Pathway.
She will look at and discuss all the different elements that are involved with the decision making process such as the initial assessment stage then the trialling of equipment. An important feature to consider is what training will be provided as well as on-going support to give the best possible chance of success. And lastly, review and evaluation stage are essential and need to be scheduled in at the start of the process.
Joanna will discuss the factors which influence AAC recommendations for individual learners and she will provide you with practical signposting to useful resources, websites and other sources of information.
