Lynne Kenney - Advanced Certificate Course Executive Functioning Skills for Children & Adolescents1Lynne Kenney – Advanced Certificate Course: Executive Functioning Skills for Children & Adolescents

Make good choices. Study. Take turns. Start homework. Sit still. Focus. Finish homework. Turn in homework.

Executive function (EF) is at the core of everything kids and teens are asked to do each day at home and school. And yet when these expectations aren’t met, professionals often turn to consequences, discipline, and “tough love” to encourage change. And when that doesn’t work, the child is labeled as “lazy” or “unmotivated” rather than someone who lacks certain skills.

Join Lynne Kenney, Psy,D., pediatric psychologist, author and international educator, as she guides you through how you can integrate the newest research in neuroscience, kinesiology, and neurocognitive education for students to behave better and learn more efficiently.

In this training, you will experience 50 developmentally progressive cognitive-exercises and coaching activities to enliven your classroom, office and clinic.

Plus, learn how to improve cognition, enhance learning and empower children to be better thinkers with motor movement, sequencing, attending, self-regulation, and memory activities.

This training is a must-watch for any professional working with kids and adolescents!
