In this train the trainer session, Dr. Pomeranz
provides attendees with intensive hands on
experience of best practice technology for facilitating
skill acquisition.  Through demonstration and role-
play, attendees will enhance their skills in training
“direct support professionals” in effectively teaching
individuals:  daily living, vocational, leisure, social and
community participation skills.  Dr. Pomeranz focuses
the session on the fundamental strategies of promoting
independence and self-determination.  The
instructional strategies address: verbal prompting,
training materials usage, physical queuing, physical
prompting, backward chaining, graduated guidance,
successive approximations, proximity control and
environmental engineering.  The session also
reinforces the precept that an essential responsibility
of all support staff is to emancipate the individuals
they support – from unnecessary dependence.
