In this episode of SPEDTalk, Pam and John are joined by Darcy Schiller, Robin Reimund, and Blaine Campbell (ESC Region 13) to discuss the Texas Statewide Leadership for Autism Training Network (TSLAT). TSLAT works in collaboration with the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to provide Training, support, and resources for educators serving students with autism. With over 80 courses in 7 different categories including courses in Spanish, TSLAT enables educators to "take the lead on professional development." All courses are free; you can learn at your own pace; and you can earn CEUs and a certificate for each course you complete.
On the TSLAT website (https://www.txautism.net/), you will also find timely and purposeful short videos that support educators and parents in their work with children with autism featuring classroom strategies, interviews with autism experts, teachers, and parents. Don't leave the website before checking out the Texas Autism Resource Guide for Effective Teaching (TARGET) designed to assist schools in developing practices from initial referral to program development and implementation with a strong emphasis on evidence-based and peer-reviewed strategies. There are a ton more resources you're gonna love so check out TSLAT and keep coming back.
