 MONTHLY FEATURED TOPIC -
EI Research & Evidence-Based Practices - Part 2
| |
In recent months, we've spent a lot of time highlighting evidence-based practices in EI. The October ITC Update provided numerous resources on this topic. This month, we thought we go one step further and feature Part 2 on EI evidence-based practices that you can use in your discussions with referral sources such as doctors and with providers who may have questions about early intervention.

Talks on Tuesdays (ToTs) are one-hour webinars designed to provide free online training opportunities related to important topics in early intervention.

ToTs are held on the first Tuesday of the month from 12:00-1:00PM.

 PLEASE NOTE: Registration slots for our ToTs frequently fill quickly HOWEVER far fewer people join the actual webinar. We'd like to request that you register only if you plan to attend so that all who are interested are able to login. Additionally, if you participate as a group, each individual does not need to register. One person can register for the group and can then share the access to the survey allowing each individual to obtain a certificate of participation. As a reminder, all ToTs are archived for your ease of access at times convenient to you. Thank you in advance for helping. |
