The training I received has given me a better insight on the struggles students with disabilities have on a daily basis. It has helped me provide different strategies so my co-workers and I are able to assist students that require interventions to be successful in their daily functions both in and out of school.

Annabell
Special Education Coordinator

From my IBCCES certification + training, I am able to learn new strategies to implement in my practice and lessons. The training re-energized my passion for working with individuals with disabilities and gave me new tools to use for challenging behaviors and situations that I have encountered. It is incredibly frustrating to not have a solution or an idea on how to help a student, and the training has often given me such a solution.
