About the CPD course
Having good speech; language and communication skills is important for how children develop holistically; interact with others and outcomes in later life. This course considers why it is important to recognise the many ways that we communicate; aside from verbal language. It describes the importance of the interactions that children have with adults; both within early years and within the home. Information outlines how communication and language skills develop and considers techniques to apply in practice.
The Early Years Alliance is the largest and most representative early years membership organisation in England. We support early years providers to deliver quality, affordable and sustainable care and learning to families, and work to ensure that all children, regardless of background, are given the best possible start in life. The Alliance’s vision is a society where every child enjoys the same opportunity to learn through play. We believe families should be at the centre of policy-making and parents empowered to become more involved with their child’s learning and development.
