Professional Development

Speld Qld offers Professional Development opportunities to all schools, organisations, parent groups and individuals, across Queensland.

We can tailor the professional development to your needs, but we also offer standard presentations including:

  • Assistive Technology  (1.5 hour)

  • Executive Functions: What are they? Why are they important  (1.5 hour)

  • The Challenge of Learning to Read  (1.5 hour)

  • Understanding Learning Difficulties  (Full day)

  • Assistive Technology  (Full day)

We can deliver PD sessions in regional and remote areas of Queensland through a video conferencing platform. A sound internet connection is required.
