Using a solution focussed, task and goal oriented approach
Together these tutorials will provide therapists with the knowledge and skills needed for functional assessment of perceptual-motor development, and for collaborating with caregivers to select training goals and figure out how to integrate opportunities for training into the daily routine.
| The DMT Course is an ongoing project. It is offered as a series of tutorials each with a video presentation, with a new tutorial offered every two weeks (DV). Below is a list of the planned tutorials with a link to the tuts that have been completed. |
