Adding on to our Volunteer Professional Development Series, Special Olympics BC is thrilled to offer a two-part virtual workshop for volunteers facilitated by the Canucks Autism Network. Please register here.
Workshop 1 - Wednesday, April 7th 6:30-8pm
This interactive workshop will introduce attendees to the characteristics of autism and provide strategies on how to motivate athletes with diverse abilities in sport.
Video and microphones are optional to use for attendees, but we recommend having a second device (such as a phone) available for an interactive software we will be using.
Workshop 2 - Thursday, May 6th 6:30-8pm
This interactive workshop will introduce attendees to a range of practical strategies for supporting individuals on the autism spectrum in sport. Learn how to enhance communication to make it more accessible to all, and how to increase predictability, so athletes show up ready to go.
Video and microphones are optional to use for attendees, but we recommend having a second device (such as a phone) available for an interactive software we will be using.
