Workshops for This Summer (2005)
We are planning at least Two Great Workshops
We are presently ironing out the details for a 3 day, 21 hour workshop for the week of June 6th in our version of training for the Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program for Reading, Spelling and Speech, Third Edition© (LiPS©) program and a 2 day, 14 hour workshop in Bell's Visualizing and Verbalizing for Language Comprehension and Thinking© (V/V©) program during that same week. In-service, CE and/or Graduate hour credits are all expected to be offered. We are a clinic independent of the Lindamood-Bell© group headquartered in California, who after receiving training from Pat and Phyllis Lindamood© and Nanci Bell© in 1990 began using these and their other programs. Our trainers have an integral knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of the programs and we believe provide the most outstanding training presently available in them. Because we are independent and have a single Center we will be able to make these workshops very affordable. Let us know of your interest and we will keep your name and address so we may give you the full information once it becomes available. E-mail us at ld-request@learningdisabilities.com.
