As part of an effort to provide on-going support for students utilizing augmentative communication, our team of specialists will be conducting training sessions on specific AAC communication tools and topics.  Participants will gain general knowledge related to the communication system.  Please note that these workshops are not student-specific.  More trainings will be offered beginning January 2021.
