This is a certified web based training on the Devereux Early Childhood Assessment for Infants and Toddlers, part of the DECA Infant Toddler Program. The DECA-I/T program is a strength-based assessment and planning system for children ages 4 weeks up to 36 months. Based on resilience theory, this comprehensive system is made up of a 5-step approach designed to support early childhood teachers, mental health professionals, home visitors and families in their goal of helping children develop healthy social/emotional skills and reduce challenging behaviors. Central to the DECA I/T Program is the DECA, a standardized, strength-based assessment of within-child protective factors including Attachment, Initiative and Self-regulation.

This webinar is an abbreviated version of the full one day training for those who are seasoned in assessment, need a refresher or want to learn more about implementing this tool in their practices.
