Development & Dissemination
- Professional Training
- Providing interdisciplinary clinical
and didactic training to students (primarily graduate and post-graduate)
enrolled in an academic program at the UW and other academic
institutions. Training experiences prepare students to provide
interdisciplinary and comprehensive services and supports to
individuals with developmental disabilities in the community,
and often serve to meet the requirements for their degree program.
-
- Technical Assistance and
Outreach Training
- Technical assistance is direct problem-solving
services provided by UCEDD faculty and staff to assist individuals,
programs, and agencies in improving their services, management,
and/or policies. Outreach training is increasing awareness and
building capacity of paraprofessionals and professionals through
training opportunities (e.g., workshops, continuing education
programs) so they are better able to serve individuals with
developmental disabilities in the community.

- Community-Based Clinics: UCEDD faculty and staff extend their
clinical services by serving clients at community-based clinics
and programs.

as well as the analysis of public policy in areas relevant to
the field of developmental disabilities.
