About the Training Program
The Shared Reading Project: Keys to Success is a five-day training program of special interest to educators, administrators, and parent leaders. It is designed to prepare site coordinators to establish the SRP at their own schools or programs.  Through the course, participants learn to:
  • use the 15 principles for reading to deaf and hard of hearing children;
  • recruit, hire, and train deaf adults to become tutors;
  • market the SRP to families;
  • work effectively with parents, caregivers, educators, and tutors; and
  • plan, coordinate, and manage the SRP budget, operations, personnel needs, and program evaluation

Participants receive a wealth of materials, including an instructional DVD that will be useful in setting up the SRP at their respective sites.  In addition, each school or program will receive one free set of 10 SRP book bags (valued at $200) to start their SRP library.

  • Participants will receive Professional Studies credits (PSTs) from Gallaudet University.
  • Sign language interpreters will be provided for ASL-to-English and English-to-ASL translations.
