Advocacy Training

This training truly transformed our family's experience. I was overwhelmed by the complicated special education process and intimidated in IEP meetings. The consultant clearly explained policies, turning my confusion into confidence. I now understand my daughter's rights and secured the specific, measurable services she needs. This advocacy training is essential!

We had a strained school relationship and saw little IEP progress. This advocacy training completely shifted our approach. We learned to analyse data and present our needs as constructive, well-researched recommendations. This led to open, respectful dialogue instead of conflict. Our last meeting secured a significantly improved, collaborative plan for my son. Highly recommend!

The concept of transition planning felt incredibly vague and stressful as my child approached secondary school. This training provided specific tools to integrate post-primary goals—covering vocational training and independent living—into his annual IEPs. The consultant even connected me with outside agencies. I urge any parent of a student over age 12 to seek out this essential clarity for their child's future.

As a parent in Tobago, finding reliable local special education information was a struggle. This advocacy training was a lifesaver, teaching me how to work with Student Support Services Division of the Ministry of Education. It provided the exact steps and forms for accessing IEPs and special concessions. I now confidently navigate the system and effectively advocate for my child.
