New Development – “How To” extended Training Sessions

Equals is busy working on a new development which involves a series of six recorded CPD sessions, with each session lasting up to 20 mins. All the sessions feature professional video content which helps share best practice from Specialist settings. Initially, the first series will involve Play and relate to informal/more complex learners. This is expected to be available for members to purchase for £300+VAT for all six sessions, later in the Autumn 2024. Non-members can purchase for these for £500+VAT.

This will be followed with a series related to Independence during 2025.
