December 3 – 4, 2010: Neuro-Developmental Treatment Approach for Pediatrics: A Handling Intensive course
 
Course Description:
This two day course teaches the most current philosophy and principles of the Neuro-Developmental Treatment Approach through lecture, demonstrations, videos and most importantly, hands-on lab experiences.  The course content provides a brief review of typical and atypical development, training in the use of the NDT Enablement Model for child assessment, and instruction in functional outcome writing and treatment planning.  This course is highly recommended for PTs, OTs, and SLPs as it has a strong emphasis on handling one another to learn movement and transition sequences.


OBJECTIVES:        
At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will:

1.    Demonstrate knowledge of the current philosophy of the Neuro-Developmental Treatment approach to pediatrics.
2.    Understand how to examine and evaluate a child and categorize the problems according to the NDT enablement model .
3.    Articulate how atypical development compares to and contrasts with typical development and why.
4.    Show skill in writing functional outcomes and developing a treatment plan based on the completed examination and evaluation of a child.
5.    Facilitate another individual through desired movements while inhibiting undesired movements.
6.    Identify the components of an evaluation and treatment of a child through observation of an instructor demonstration.
