Working with adults is essentially the same as working with 9-18 year old children. The difference is mainly to do with motivation issues for the younger group and emotional issues which are slightly different depending on age. Stage 1: The Basic Course Series Open to all adults. (Total £3,150) 
Your training varies depending on your goals. If you simply want to be better equipped to deal with dyslexia in your work as a teacher or SENCO, or you are a layperson wanting to be able to help a dyslexic friend or family member, you can decide to do only the first (four day) module of our professional training at the cost of £750. This first module is called the Gift of Dyslexia Workshop. In order to feel more secure in dealing with literacy (dyslexia) you can take the next two modules, designed to refine your skills in applying the Davis methods to address dyslexia. These two modules, together with the Gift of Dyslexia Workshop are called the Basic Training and they add £1,300 to your costs, totalling £2,050 for the Basic Training. If you want to learn to deal with maths (dyscalculia), handwriting issues (dysgraphia), and/or AD/HD issues, you can attend the four day Advanced Workshop at additional cost of £1,100, taking your total training cost to £3,150. Stage 2: Professional Training Series (Open only to applicants for Facilitator Licensing)  If you want to practice as an independent Davis Facilitator, you will need to complete the full Professional Training, which adds about four weeks of on-site training and further four weeks of home assignments at further cost of £6,600, taking the total training costs to £9,750. This is a time commitment of about eight weeks and needs to be completed within two years of commencing your training. |
