Elklan Training

Elklan provides effective and accessible training to ensure everyone in a child’s network can support the development of children's speech, language and communication. Elklan delivers courses to teachers, teaching assistants, early years practitioners and parents, empowering them with the knowledge and practical strategies to utilise speech and language therapy methods in the classroom to develop children’s communication skills. Elklan has trained over 90,000 educational practitioners through a network of over 4,500 Elklan tutors.

Elklan’s main offer is a range of core speech and language support courses and the Communication Friendly Settings programme. The core courses will equip practitioners with strategies to support language and communication development in the classroom and recognise and address SLCN. The CFS programme facilitates those practitioners to cascade the essential methods from the core courses to the rest of the staff within their setting. In completing the CFS award and improving provision amongst your team, the whole setting will become an environment which supports the communication and language development of all pupils.
