This training is offered by Lakeshore Learning, in partnership with the Early Learning Coalition of Polk County.

To meet the ever-evolving demands of classrooms, educators must be familiar with both developmental and behavioral markers commonly found in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). During this session, we will explore some common markers, how they might impact academic and social-emotional functioning, and the importance of family collaboration. Through discussion and hands-on activities, participants will collaborate to plan for meaningful strategies that support these young learners. 

Outcomes: This workshop will help participants implement strategies to support children on the Autism spectrum and maximize their development and participation in the learning environment.

This training is virtual. Please watch your email for the Zoom link to join us online. All participants must have cameras and microphones on for the entire session in order to receive credit for the training. 

Training hours earned during this will count toward the 2025-26 Training Incentive Program (TIP).
