The present course aims to provide the participants with knowledge, skills and attitudes that will enable them to communicate effectively and to empower people with disabilities (PwD) in education or counselling environments. They will learn by doing verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which will enable them to work successfully, on teaching, supporting and counselling PwD, empowering them to self-manage their life paths. To achieve this goal, teaching will be more experiential and participative. Role plays, embodiment and drama techniques are implemented.
The course starts on Monday morning (09:00) and finishes on Saturday (12:00 approximately).
