This virtual workshop is open only to families in the Somerset County Council.  The course will introduce the SCERTS framework, an evidence-based approach, for creating learning environments that are “desirable and predictable” for our learners who have social emotional learning differences.  Positive outcomes are related to how actively engaged a learner is throughout his or her day at home and at school. As such, we will begin with a discussion of current neuroscience and how learning differences impact active engagement.  Next, we will shift to the critical role we play as caregivers, educators and therapists in providing interpersonal support and learning supports to foster active engagement using the developmental guidance of SCERTS.
