Training
Regional Training Information
Education Service Centers (ESCs) provide training and technical assistance to schools within their service delivery area. On an annual basis, each ESC determines the training needs of the educators and parents within their region and creates a plan to best meet those needs. On the Regional Contacts page of our website, you will find information on accessing information on trainings at each education service center. Using the map on that page choose the region of Texas in which you live. Press the number inside the region. It will take you to information on how to access your regional ESC's training information.
Autism Training Series
In response to an ongoing need for autism training, a series of autism courses was created for the state of Texas. Although parts of the courses detail information specific to Texas, they contain good basic information on autism. We intend these for the following audience: administrators, community members, paraeducators, parents, students, support staff, teachers and any others interested in autism.
Autism Training Series: Face-to-Face Workshops
These are provided periodically at your regional Education Service Center. Please use the map on the Regional Contacts page to chose the region of Texas in which you live. Press the number inside the region. It will take you to information on how to access your regional ESC's training information.
