Educational activities

 

DYS-centrum® Praha is an educational institution accredited by The Czech Ministry of Education. It organizes courses, seminars and workshops for teachers, special educators, psychologists, speech therapists, other specialists, students of pedagogy, and parents. The courses are lead by prestigious specialists from The Czech Republic (i.e. psychologists, special educators, speech therapists, neurologists). Currently we offer more than seventy different courses. The accreditation means that the courses can be paid from state funding which schools get for further education of their employees. It also means that the quality of each accredited course is granted by the Ministry of Education.

 

Educational activities also include cooperation with schools and universities. We offer university students to spend their obligatory training in our institution. We participate in various researches conducted in The Czech Republic, and in development and implementation of special teaching aids for children with SLD and/or AD(H)D.

 

In 2008 we received a two-year EU grant on education of secondary school teachers. They are offered various courses and training activities which should enhance their knowledge how to work with their students with SLD and/or AD(H)D. All these educational activities are free of charge to them.
