 Professional and Family Training

The Capper Professional and Family Training program is designed
to enhance clinical decision-making skills, therapy, and educational
techniques for direct service providers, personal attendants and parents
with the ultimate outcome of enhancing the independence of people they
work and live with who have disabilities.

The Capper Professional and Family Training program provides both 
continuing education workshops and customized training services.

CONTINUING EDUCATION WORKSHOPS: One, two, or multiple day training
workshops are provided on a variety of topics and feature locally, nationally, and
internationally recognized guest speakers. Prior CEU sponsorship is
requested from the KPTA, KOTA, and KDHE. Certificates of completion are provided
to attendees of all training workshops.
