To date over 145 students have graduated from the course and are working across the globe with thousands of children and adults with neurological motor disorders.
The training of new conductors is an essential part of the overall development of Conductive Education and enables us to not only provide a new generation of professionals but also to develop practice in line with social and economic developments.
In 2011 the training department further expanded its role and status and formed an independent ‘Conductive College’. The aim of the college is to provide a range of accredited and non-accredited training courses for professionals, families and carers in the field of Conductive Education. Courses, leading to a qualification, will be accredited by bodies including the AIM Qualifications and Assessment Group and Birmingham City University.
The recognition of the importance of research and evaluation in this specialised field will also play a key feature in the work moving forward.
The conductive college is a key tool for the development of Conductive Education in the future and an essential part of the work of the NICE.
The Professional Conductors Association (PCA) supports conductors, conductor assistants, and professionals working in Conductive Education (CE) across the UK.
It promotes the professional status of conductors through continual professional development, networking opportunities, and advisory publications.
The PCA provides essential guidance, including a Code of Practice and Professional Standards for Conductors, and produces materials on key CE topics.
Additionally, it plays a key role in organising the Annual CE Conference and supporting Conductive Education Awareness Week to raise the profile of CE.
