About this course
Special need preschoolers possess a unique blend of potential and challenges, necessitating specialized knowledge and insights from healthcare professionals. Recognizing and understanding developmental disabilities in preschool-aged children, as outlined by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), lays the foundation for appropriate care. This course provides a comprehensive look into school-based eligibility, the intricacies of the Individual Educational Plan (IEP) process, and the plethora of services available to address the varied needs within this age bracket. Healthcare professionals will be equipped with the proficiency to utilize evidence-based assessment tools spanning seven critical domains, including academic and social-emotional functioning. Furthermore, the nuanced role of cultural and parental factors on the IEP process will be delineated, enhancing the interdisciplinary approach to holistic care. Through this curriculum, the intersection of education, psychology, and healthcare emerges as pivotal in fostering optimal outcomes for special need preschoolers.
