Who is the course for?
The course has been created for teachers, other professionals and parents interested in developing inclusive education.
If you are part of a community wanting to develop inclusive education in a school, you could form a group to support each other’s learning and try out inclusive strategies. We will provide additional resources and ideas for those wanting to implement inclusive education practices, especially in low resource settings.
Our task is to centralize the largest number of courses, training, tutorials, videos to make it easier for you to search when you want to train.
Generally, we incorporate those that are free, but if we find some interesting ones that are paid, we add them so that your training is more profitable and professional.
Keep training yourself to become a better professional or simply for personal achievements, cheer up, don't give up and go ahead !!!.
