3 Semester Credits | ED 501 Course
This course empowers clinicians, teachers, and support staff to unlock communication through regulation, shifting the focus from behavioral management to neurobiological support. By evaluating internal states, environments, and routines, participants apply "bottom-up" shifts to establish the physiological safety and regulation essential for accessing communication. Through analyzing autonomic states and modifying daily contexts, teams learn to transform biological safety into a student’s capacity for communication and social engagement.

DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE!
This 3-credit course is designed to demystify sensory regulation and Polyvagal Theory.
If you’re anything like me, saying “Behavior is Communication,” and “Regulation before Communication,” isn’t enough.
In this course, you’ll learn about Polyvagal Theory, arousal levels, The Sensory Seesaw, The Language Staircase, and how to consider and incorporate sensory supports, environmental adjustments, and shifts in routines.
