Professional Development FAQs


A women surrounded by questions marks

FIPP welcomes professionals working in early intervention and higher education students who are following an academic curriculum relevant to early intervention.

Topics include, but are not limited to: use of a coaching interaction style, natural learning environment practices, resource-based practices, discipline-specific evidenced-based practices, and primary service provider approach to teaming.

FIPP provides a variety of learning opportunities, including: eLearning modules, live training events (your site or ours), and onsite clinical and research internships.

If you are a professional, you will be paired with a Primary Learning Coach. Your visit will be individualized based on your interests and preferred observations. If you are a student, you will be assigned to a discipline-specific mentor who will provide guidance and hands-on experience to support you in meeting your program requirements.
