Training is educational and can be customized around the responsibilities and environment of the participating organization.
Customized to Your Needs
Every school, family and organization has different goals. Neural Connection does not rely on one standard presentation for every group.
Before developing a consultation or training program, we take the time to understand:
- Who will participate
- Who the participants serve
- The situations they commonly encounter
- Current concerns or challenges
- The goals of the training
- The level of ABA or autism knowledge participants already have
We then tailor the subject matter and examples to make the program practical and relevant.
