Philadelphia Infant Toddler Early
Intervention 2019-20 requirements
As noted in last week’s issue, all Philadelphia Infant
Toddler Early Intervention (PITEI) personnel need to
complete TLC’s new eLearning course, Parents’
Rights and Strengthening Local Dispute Resolution,
and the University of Utah’s online modules on tele-
intervention. Registration is available here.
Registration for “Foundations of Early Intervention”
and “Competency” courses that were in progress or
were not yet started when in-person programs were
suspended in March, is open. Before the class date,
registrants will receive an Internet link they will use to
sign in to the meeting. Once you log in at the course
time, you will participate in a live, instructor-led
course, simultaneously with others who are also logged
in to the online course site. Our platform enables
attendees with webcam/microphone access and will
record individuals’ participation/engagement so
completion is documented and credits can be recorded
into TLC transcripts.
TLC offers a variety of online, asynchronous and self-
paced programs that are available 24/7 to help you
fulfill PITEI self-choice requirements.
