PECS® Level 1 Training is engaging and interactive and takes 2-days (13 hours). It begins by teaching spontaneous request, teaches additional communicative functions such as responding to questions and commenting. Learn to implement the six phases of PECS® and attributes, utilising the Pyramid Approach to Education Approved PECS® Protocol. Participants will leave the workshop with an understanding of how to implement the PECS® Protocol in classrooms with learners who have complex communication and behavioural needs such as autism, and related disabilities.
An added benefit for preschool children with autism and related disabilities is the high proportion who acquire independent speech. "When three students with autism ages 5-9, were taught PECS® over a period of less than two months, their spoken language consisted of more words and they used more complex grammar in speech." Ganz & Simpson 2004.
