    Very Insightful

    I thought this training was extremely informational. The speaker seemed knowledgeable and was entertaining to listen to. There were a lot of practical examples and implementation tools in the training. Worth every minute.

    Selective Mutism course review

    I enjoyed learning about what SM is and what it's not. That's the first step to helping and working towards how to help students with SM.

"Thank you for making this excellent, research-based learning opportunity that is both extremely accessible and affordable. This is the best kind of PD: it’s one hour at a time so I can learn and then have time to synthesize and apply. It provides information I can apply to my practice immediately; and I can listen and learn while I drive, fold laundry, etc. thanks for the research and resources!"
