Workshops
All three of the workshops will be repeated three times to allow you to attend them all. If, however, you would like to miss one and use that time to network with colleagues over coffee, please do so. We’d suggest you go back to the area near where you registered to see who is there.
The workshops for the 2022 conference are as follows:
Support: support for staff, support for families, support for you provided by Lesley Perks with support from Jenny Miller, both IASS Members – A table top exercise for sharing of information and experience around support models within IASS services.
Advice: Exploring different models of service provided by Gayle Moir, IASS Member – How does your service keep up with demand? Using examples from SENDIAS services across England, this workshop will explore a variety of different approaches to providing advice for children, young people and their parents. We’ll discuss the benefits of each service model, the skills needed to deliver it and how you know if it’s working.
Information: exploring how we are making technology work provided by Daniel Pott, IASS Member
