Training and Assessment

Lekotek leader and child play

Training Course

Lekotek conducts a 2-day training course to teachers, therapists and high school students prior to the start of camp. During training, volunteers work with iPads, diverse applications, computer hardware, adapted input devices, and software for all ages. In addition, Lekotek staff present valuable information on communication, positioning and behavior management techniques. Strong emphasis is placed on using the computer within a "play" environment. Volunteers become "experts" in the use of iPad and computer technology.
