Hosted by the MA Center for Inclusive Higher Education and Transition
Educational coaches play a critical role in helping students with intellectual and developmental disabilities fully participate in college life. From navigating campus and managing time to engaging in class and building social connections, coaches support students in developing the skills they need to learn, belong, and grow more independent. This webinar focuses on what effective coaching looks like in practice. Using real campus-based examples, participants will explore concrete strategies that promote self-determination, inclusion, and skill development across common college environments, including classrooms, student centers, and campus resources.
