Webinar 4. Classroom Management: Behavioral Supports, Motivation, Reflective Teaching Webinar Series: CTE for Students with Disabilities Secondary CTE has long been a viable pathway for developing the skills of students with disabilities (SWD) and preparing them for the future.

This five-part webinar series will take a deep dive into programs, practices and partnerships among CTE and special education practitioners that support SWD in CTE. Each webinar will last 90 minutes, including Q & A, and will be available for later viewing here at https://transitionta.org/events-details.
