Supporting a gifted child is often challenging.

This presentation guides parents through when and why to consider gifted testing and what the assessment process involves from start to finish.  Parents will gain clarity on what is actually measured, how to make sense of results, and what they reveal about a child’s learning profile. Parents will leave with practical ways to use this information to support their child’s growth, education, and development. The presentation will also touch on how assessment can capture more complex profiles, including potentially twice-exceptional children who are both gifted and have other learning differences.
