Title: My life in the future: ensuring independence for all
Thursday 19th, 12:15pm

How do we effectively prepare learners for an independent life, when often society is prejudiced against it? During this webinar we look at the idea of Preparation for Adulthood, and discuss ways in which we can creatively teach young adults to share their aspirations and dreams, while giving them the skills to become as independent as possible.
