Words Up Early (Level 1) - Key Messages Training

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The Words Up: Early (Level 1) Key Messages for Adult/ Child Interaction training has been developed by speech and language therapists in Highland for adults to support their interactions with children, leading to improved speech, language and communication for children. The online training is an alternative to the face to face Level 1 training.

# data[].attributes.body
The handbook will be an invaluable resource of ideas, for early years officers/key workers, to help in providing advice and support around communication in early years.

The Handbook supplements the training which has been rolled out across Fife for early years officers and apprentices in supporting good communication practice in early years settings.

This presentation explains the way children develop speech sounds and the reasons their speech may be hard to understand in the early years.  Includes hints and tips to help children develop clear speech.

An Introduction to the Autism Spectrum Online Training Course

# data[].attributes.body
With 1 in 100 children on the total autism spectrum, it is important that anyone who comes into contact with children, and may encounter someone on the autism spectrum has an understanding of the condition. As a result, this e-learning module aims to provide learners with a basic awareness of the autism spectrum and help to dispel many of the myths associated with the condition.

Upon completion of this course, learners will:

·         Recognise the main characteristics of behaviour for people on the autism spectrum.

·         Understand the triad of impairment.

·         Comprehend the range of the spectrum.

·         Appreciate the particular differences of understanding language with people on the autism spectrum.

·         Recognise the need to backup spoken language visually to help understanding.

·         Understand the importance of routine and predictability for people on the autism spectrum.

·         Appreciate the sensory differences of people on the autism spectrum.

Target Participants: Those working within the Early Years and Childcare.

Additional Information:

This is an e-learning course to be undertaken through independent study. When registering for the course you will be issues with a completion deadline of 28 days. If you do not complete this course within the stated 28 days you will be charged a non-completion fee of £50.
