Join us at an It Takes Two to Talk® Certification Workshop
in Athens, Greece on October 10 – 13, 2015
 

Effectively involving parents in the intervention process means empowering them to take the lead as primary language facilitators for their child. But when you teach a parent something, how can you be sure that they truly understand it and know why it's important?

Telling a parent something is easy, but teaching them takes time and patience – and a solid understanding of how adults learn and the variety of learning styles they have, which affect how they learn best.

The Hanen Centre's 3-day It Takes Two to Talk® Certification Workshop can provide you with an effective teaching methodology that accommodates all learning styles and ensures that parents are actively engaged in the learning, thereby maximizing their ability to both understand and apply their learning effectively to everyday interactions with their child.

22 Professional Development Hours!
