Workshops and Training

As the Centre is the only one of its kind, in Africa, that does training in the use of AAC intervention strategies with people with severe disabilities, training at different schools, hospitals and institutions are conducted, regularly on request. Once a formal request for training is made, the Centre for AAC, in collaboration with the institutions staff then does a needs analysis at the particular setting to determine training objectives. These training objectives are custom formulated to meet the needs of the individual setting. Thereafter 2 to 3 CAAC staff members conduct the training usually over a two to three day period. Follow-up consultations and training sessions are then conducted in-situ during which the implementation issues within the teaching/training environment are addressed.
