This programme enables teachers and others working in education related fields to work more effectively with learners who are deafblind (multi-sensory impaired); while many students are practising teachers working with children, others are from further education, social services, paramedical or medical specialisms, or residential work; the programme aims to provide an understanding of the effects and implications of dual sensory impairment on development, learning, and communication, through theoretical and practical work; it will include skills in assessment, monitoring and recording, a knowledge of teaching approaches and of support systems.
