CENTe-R
Collaborative Early Intervention National Training e-Resource
Newborn hearing screening legislation has resulted in early identification of babies with hearing loss, so professionals in multiple disciplines need knowledge in deafness and early intervention. CENTe-R's focus is to ensure that graduate-level intervention professionals develop appropriate professional skills/competencies to meet unique concerns of families with infants and toddlers who are deaf / hard of hearing. Modules were developed in collaboration with families and practitioners from across the United States. The module content was outlined, composed, reviewed and piloted by national experts in deafness and early intervention.
