PECS promotes communication within a social context, without lengthy pre-requisite training. Training in PECS begins by teaching a spontaneous request and goes on to teach additional communicative functions such as responding to questions and commenting. Participants will learn how to implement the six phases of PECS, including attributes through presenter demonstrations, video examples and role-play opportunities. Particiapnts will leave the workshop with an understanding of how to implement PECS with individuals with autism, related developmental disabiltiies, and/or limited communication skills.
