Clinicians working with children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and their families often need to plan for individualised interventions and support strategies. However, there are a wide variety of approaches, tools and training available. So how do you decide what approach to take and when? This online workshop will combine current research regarding interventions and strategies with practical examples giving you the skills to apply your learnings in therapy.
This workshop will be hosted online using Zoom with the recording shared with delegates. Please book as soon as you’ve decided to attend to avoid missing out!
