Orton-Gillingham Approach: Associate Level Training will combine interactive live daily sessions with online, self-paced modules. The online Orton-Gillingham training course meets the requirements for Classroom Educator and Associate Level training through the Orton-Gillingham Academy (OGA).

Participants have the option to complete subsequent practicums (for an additional cost) to work towards certification through OGA. Coursework and practicums meet the prerequisite requirements for the International Dyslexia Association’s Dyslexia (IDA) Certification through the Center for Effective Reading Instruction (CERI).

“This course was amazing; thank you so much! I believe this course was so valuable, and it will greatly benefit my students and me in the classroom.”

“This was such an amazing course. I have never had a training that I felt so anxious to implement. I also had no idea how much went into decoding/reading, nor did I realize what dyslexia actually was. This course should be taught in colleges! Thank you for all your time and information. You both have a true gift, and it’s clear, any student you work with is very fortunate to have you!”

“The experience was illuminating in many ways.”

“LOVED them .. (trainers) are incredibly knowledgeable and have a depth of experience. I feel like I can trust their expertise. They are also warm, approachable, and open to questions. 

I really appreciated the balance of theory with practice. We learned about the ‘why’ throughout each piece. No fluff; everything was rooted in science and research. “
