Achieving Communication Competence is available as a book with reproducibles and as Packages with additional communication components included.
The Achieving Communication Competence Book details a three step process to create an effective intervention plan for people with severe communication disabilities.
- First, assess the environment, including settings, opportunities, and communication partners.
- Next, assess communication skills and write messages, design displays, and select partners.
- Finally, implement your plan and report on progress. Assessments, inventory forms, guides, and detailed case studies seamlessly lead you through this process. Downloadable PDF and customizable Microsoft Word files encourage you to personalize and share these tools.
