Rush NeuroBehavioral Center has developed a full-day training workshop for teachers. Teachers may attend a scheduled workshop on an individual basis or as part of a team from a school or district. Workshops can also be arranged for a school, or a district, through an educational agency, university, or professional development center. Teachers will learn how to implement instruction in Executive Function skills in the classroom or as part of an after-school program. Workshop participants will receive the RNBC Executive Functions Curriculum Notebook and a workshop folder, including a packet of relevant workshop materials. Access to RNBC Educational Services staff is available via e-mail for continued communication and support. In addition, RNBC provides follow-up consulting for individual teachers, schools, or districts that want to implement an Executive Functions program. Such arrangements are designed to fit the specific needs of the teacher, school, or district, and can be discussed after the workshop has concluded. Executive Functions are the brain processes that enable us to regulate the world around us, utilizing organizational and higher-order learning skills. Development of the skills listed below are essential for success in school and later in life. This program is designed for classroom and subject-area teachers, special education teachers, school psychologists and social workers, school principals and other interested administrators. It’s never too early to begin building strong executive function skills in children. Space is limited.
