Want to learn how to create an environment where different points of view are respectfully shared? Although our focus is on meaningful participation in an Individualized Education Program (IEP) meeting, these skills can be used in any conversation. Join us for an interactive session to learn a few strategies to ensure collaboration and leave with additional resources to continue to grow effective communication skills. Upon completion of this session, participants will be able to identify, describe and demonstrate tools for collaborative decision making and negotiating.
