This Training Pack is for SaLT assistants, early years practitioners, teaching assistants, teachers, psychologists and parents who have succesfully completed Speech and Language Support for 0-3s, Speech and Language Support for 3-5s, Language & Literacy for 2-4s or Language and Learning for 2-4s at level 3.
In addition, applicants must evidence:

- that they are currently working as either a childminder, early years practitioner, teaching assistant, speech & language therapy assistant, teacher or psychologist with a minimum of three years experience in the role. If you have less than three years experience or don't work in these roles, we will still welcome your application but will consider each application on its own merit.
Parents are also encouraged to apply - please contact us to confirm eligibility.
How is it delivered?
In typical times we offer both online and face-to-face training. Both cover the same superb content and are taught by Heather Price, a highly experienced speech and language therapist and Elklan tutor. Currently, only online training is available.
Online Training
Our online training is completed over two 3-hour or one full day webinar. You'll be expected to read the manual to prepare for the webinar.
Face-to-Face Training
Training takes place on one day and is delivered at two venues in the UK, London and Manchester.
If you'd like to commission Elklan to deliver face-to-face training for your local staff, please get in touch.
