Every plan must be personalized and based on an assessment of a student’s unique skill set, preferences, interests, dreams, needs, and learning styles. Every student with ASD is as unique as every student who does not have ASD. The NVCI 2 day course will help teach you strategies that will help you interact with students with ASD more effectively. They are rooted in a spirit of empathy, dignity, and respect and will help you further develop a school environment of Care, Welfare, Safety, and SecuritySM.
