Dyspraxia Certificate
When: October 7, 8, 9, 29, 2026 from 9am to 4pm Singapore time zone
Description
Why would you want to do a certificate workshop in Praxis / Dyspraxia? Because you want to be a leader in your field in understanding development and what to do about it! This workshop will tell you what it is, how to define the different subsections of it as well as show you how and what to assess so you could plan targeted intervention. This workshop has been renewed, and re-organized the way we look at development and added clinical sessions of actual treatment sessions.
This 3-day certificate course will include the theory of different sub-categories of Dyspraxia and explain the background in the nervous system. Multiple techniques and interventions (top down and bottom up) will be shared in order to plan intervention. The third day will cover in-depth information on assessment and clinical observations following the three-phase system of Maude’s own Developmental Pathways Model (DPM). This is a workshop not to be missed for anyone working in the field of paediatrics, schools, and early learning. Discover how Dyspraxia influences learning, attention and executive functioning.
