The Benilde Program, for high school students, is an example of the excellent tradition fostered by Catholic schools for combining a thirst for justice, innovation, and high academic standards. Developed 16 years ago, the Benilde Program is a unique system of support for students with a wide variety of learning differences who seek to complete a college-preparatory course of study. Variations of the original program have subsequently been adopted by other Catholic high schools.
This webinar, presented by the first director of the original program, will explain how the program works, introduce the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles on which it was founded, and explain how to get more information on starting a similar program.
Webinar participants will be able to:
- Improve upon existing strategies to support exceptional educational opportunities for all students.
- Learn the components of a working, successful, and inclusive program for students with learning differences based upon UDL principles.
- Maximize the opportunities for college success for all students.
This webinar is offered free of charge as an NCEA member benefit and is hosted twice to fit your scheduling needs.
