AEP Connections | Understand Dyslexia from Diagnosis to Treatment

Wednesday, November 5, 2025 - 6:00-9:15pm ET

 

Dyslexia is the most common of all known learning disorders, affecting 1 in 5 children in the U.S. and accounting for 80% of those diagnosed with a learning disability. This course will cover all aspects of dyslexia, including current definitions, early signs and symptoms, what constitutes an appropriate assessment, and the most effective treatments. We will explore the most current research as well as the brain’s role in dyslexia. Since dyslexia can co-occur with other conditions such as ADHD and anxiety, we will explore how to recognize and treat those conditions.
