Training services

DSE offers a range of training services, including online courses, accessible on-demand to parents and educators worldwide. Our training services offer information and guidance consistent with the latest research evidence and extensive practical experience.

Developed and led by Professor Sue Buckley OBE - a recognised leader in education research for children with Down syndrome - our courses are rigorously grounded in the scientific understanding of the learning needs of children with Down syndrome. At the same time our services are firmly focused on practical advice designed to improve outcomes for children with Down syndrome at home and in the classroom.

Online courses

Our online courses offer convenient access to up-to-date information and practical guidance for parents, teachers and therapists supporting children with Down syndrome.

Each course includes a series of modules, each of which includes a video presentation, handouts and an assessment. The video presentations can be viewed, handouts downloaded and assessments completed at any time.
