About the workshop:
In this session, you will review a twenty-year longitudinal study that traces the lives of individuals with learning challenges through adulthood and learn about the six traits that helped these adults’ lead successful lives. Teaching each of the six success attributes - self-awareness, proactivity, perseverance, goal-setting, support systems, and emotional coping strategies - has been shown to greatly improve the success rates of children and adults with learning challenges.
