One for our colleagues in Education Dumfries and Galloway Council

We will once again be running our free webinar on Supporting Literacy development with AAC in March!

Literacy skills are vital for the development of a student's communicative abilities but additional considerations and support are needed when AAC is also involved, that's why we developed a course to look at ways of engaging literacy learning in this enviroment.

Perfect for teachers, teaching assistants, SEND Coordinators, or any staff working in an educational setting, Supporting Literacy With AAC will help you build the skills needed to support your learners.
