The DIR®/Floortime™ Administrators program is
under review and will not be offered in 2011

Program Description:

ICDL offers this special program to a select group of participants who administer educational programs utilizing the principles and concepts of the DIR® model.  The goals are to share experiences, learn how different programs function, discuss how to work with boards and deal with funding, problem solve together, and establish an ongoing working network to provide support, solutions and materials as we all strive to bring DIR® theory to practice in the classroom. Several new schools start each year and it is invaluable to join the veteran DIR® schools who share their journeys and their new initiatives. Monthly phone conferences are held throughout the school year to provide support, share materials and problem solve. The program takes place during the first half of the DIR®/Floortime™ Training Program. A DIR® Certificate for Administrators acknowledges schools which have met the criteria for using the DIR® mark.

DIR® A - Administrators Programs Features:

The unique feature of all DIR® educational programs is the small group case discussions.  We will meet as one group some of the time and also break down to work groups on different issues.  Each participant is also asked to show a short video clip of their program and present an Administrative Challenge to the group.  These will be organized by themes and suggestions and recommendations are summarized together.

The DIR®/Floortime™ Training Program is a responsive to the educational needs of its candidates and services needed.  ICDL reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to alter, amend, expand or otherwise modify the requirements for the program, at any time, without notice. The determination as to a candidate's successful completion of the Program requirements will be solely that of ICDL and the DIR®/Floortime™ Training Program.
