Sensory integration as a method of work with pre-school and early stage education children
The aim of the course is to familiarize participants with the problems of sensory integration disorders among children and to acquire the ability to diagnose them in children with various health and developmental problems as well as difficulties in functioning, behavior and learning. Participants will acquire knowledge useful during therapeutic and educational activities with children with sensory processing disorders. The certificate we issue does not authorize any practice of a profession, it does not replace a university diploma or other documents required by law in order to practice the profession. It does, however, confirm the fulfilment of the knowledge and skills, as well as working on one’s own development, which in itself is of value and may constitute a competitive advantage on the labour market.
