Why Get Certified?
Cognitive disorders and mental health challenges are on the rise in schools throughout the country. Teachers will have numerous students with these issues in every class, the real question is how well they are able to help them. If teachers and other staff are not educated on how to best work with and identify students struggling with these issues, they will impact the outcomes of both their mental health and their academic performance.
Pursuing Certification Is the Best Way To:
- Prepare teachers for managing a neurodiverse classroom
- Increase overall student mental health and safety
- Prevent students from needing to be transferred to another district due to lack of qualified teachers
- Better serve individuals and families affected by autism, cognitive disorders and mental health disorders
