CONSULTATION
Families may use FaHCSIA funding to access regular PECS/Pyramid intervention with one of our consultants. Intervention can focus on communication alone, or incorporate the teaching of additional skills using the Pyramid Approach to Education.
We are happy to provide PECS Start-Up and Check-Up and also sessions of intensive teaching to develop PECS and other critical communication skills: e.g. direction and schedule following, learning to 'wait', to ask for 'help' or for a 'break' and answering 'yes' and 'no'.

PECS INTENSIVE PROGRAM
The Intensive Program focuses on the implementation of PECS for learners aged 3-7 years. The program is appropriate for learners that have never used PECS, as well as those learners who are currently struggling with progression through the phases. The program generally runs for a period of 1 week, with learners attending the program for six hours each day for a total of 5 days. Your learner will work on communication skills across settings, with different communication partners to make a variety of comments and requests. It is not uncommon for the learner to engage in over 200 communicative exchanges per day at the program. Parents are encouraged to attend the PECS Basic Training.
