Seven years of podcasting and we've never actually sat down to discuss how to teach manding. This week, we make up for lost time by pulling from a variety of mand training research quandrants to see what's new to up our mand game. We've got mand assessments, manding with speech generating devices, and the ombudsmand (a term Rob has refused to stop using).

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
