Description:

**THE TRAINING IS FOR CLIENT DISTRICTS ONLY** 

The Orton-Gillingham approach is a structured, systematic, multisensory, and diagnostic-prescriptive approach for teaching language skills (including reading, spelling, and handwriting) to students with dyslexia. 

This 10-day course (June 3 - June 14) will prepare educators to implement high-quality reading instruction that aligns with reading science successfully. Course topics will include the characteristics and needs of students with dyslexia, the critical structures of English that must be addressed by instruction, and the design, implementation, and evaluation of effective individual lesson plans. 

This 60-hour introductory course will introduce participants to the basics of the Orton-Gillingham approach. Completing this course and a supervised practicum (to be contracted individually with instructors, cost not included) prepares participants for the associate level of the Orton-Gillingham Academy application process for certification.

ASHLAND CREDIT (Optional): 4-semester hours of Ashland Credit is available to purchase. (2 semester hours each week at $498 each week).

**THERE IS A 2-WEEK WINDOW IN CASE OF CANCELLATION. IF YOU ARE CANCELLING AFTER THAT 2-WEEK WINDOW, A FEE WILL OCCUR**
