The “Neuroscience in Education Implementation Course” is for school and community professionals who are interested in learning more about the Applied Educational Neuroscience (AEN) Framework. Developed in partnership between Dr. Lori Desautels (Butler University) and the TASN SMHI, these modules provide an overview of brain architecture, the four pillars of the AEN Framework, and offer participants an opportunity to apply a practice within their current setting.
These modules are offered at no-charge through the KSDE Technical Assistance System Network (TASN). 3 CE credits are available for this training, including for social workers, as TASN SMHI is an approved BSRB provider (#18-011).
