Overview
Learn how to identify communication difficulties that children and young people have by taking our comprehensive Child Language Disorder (CLD) course. Several versions of CLD can actively hold back a child from understanding messages, being able to express themselves, or a combination of both. With the help of this training, you will be able to recognise and support those children who have forms of CLD in their development and everyday routines.
Communication disorders can develop at an early age and dramatically impact the learning capabilities of a child. By completing the course, you will gain an acute awareness of the cause and symptoms of common CLDs. You will be taught the typical communication phases for children, potential signs of language deficiencies, neurological and medical origins of speech difficulties, and genetic syndromes. Upon completion, as a guardian, teacher, or welfare professional, you will be aware of the steps that should be next taken when CLD has been diagnosed.
