Understanding
the role vision and vestibular function play
in sensory integration is one of the most routinely misunderstood
concepts for professionals working with children. This
course will clear your misconceptions and misunderstandings
and provide you with valuable
'Insight' into
the relation between visual/vestibular development and
sensory integration.
This
course respects, and expects, your clinical and academic
discipline for learning. Acquiring conceptual understanding
of the material presented is an expectation of the teachers
of this course. The resultant clinical skills acquired
in this course are too significant to be given in 'cook-book'
format. You will therefore leave this course with the
practical knowledge and conceptual understanding to appropriately
apply that knowledge.
After taking this course, you will:
• Truly
understand the role of vision and vestibular function
in sensory integration.
•
Be able to confidently engage in fluent discourse regarding
the clinical
significance of the visual and vestibular process to child
development.
•
Be able to screen for the most devastating visual and vestibular
interferences to child development...and know what to
do about it.

Participant comments
"Excellent
- in all my years of continuing ed, I rate this very
high, especially for usable therapy suggestions."
"The
Tx suggestions were very concrete and applicable.
Many conferences give vague suggestions."
"I
appreciate that both presenters were willing to answer
questions throughout the session, and further explain
any information needed."
"All
course materials and lectures were excellent. The
speakers were engaging and interesting. I thoroughly
enjoyed both speakers and I feel the information
is relevant and realistic."
"Every
OT needs to come to this course if they are working
in peds. It seems like (the) workshop was two separate
workshops. Great information. Best workshop I've
been to in a long time."
"I
very much appreciate the experience and knowledge
base that the presenters brought to the workshop.
Excellent workshop. Very valuable to my practice."
