ABC and Beyond™ course
International Hanen certification for early childhood professionals, providing practical strategies to promote emergent literacy and language skills in children aged 3 to 5 in school or childcare settings.
Who is it for?
It is designed for early childhood educators (preschool teachers, nursery staff and caregivers) who work with children aged 3 to 5, with or without developmental difficulties.
Duration and frequency
- 7 interactive group sessions (approximately 15 to 18 hours of theoretical and practical training).
- 3 individual video-feedback and personalised coaching sessions, analysing how the strategies are being applied.
What do we work on?
The methodology is naturalistic, practical and evidence-based. Rather than teaching reading mechanically or in isolation, it equips educators to use daily routines, play and shared storybook reading as learning opportunities.
The programme focuses on strengthening the six building blocks of future reading comprehension:
- Oral language
- Vocabulary
- Story comprehension
- Phonological awareness
- Print knowledge
- Abstract thinking
