Attendee Feedback:

“Honestly, this was the best webinar I’ve ever seen! I also liked how it was aware of the previous knowledge school psychologists have on the topic and didn’t waste time going over basics.

“I appreciated being spoken to as a practicing school psychologist, as opposed to a student. I will need to look into the RSI. I also appreciated Dr. Goldstein’s honesty (e.g. how some decisions have been made due to political and/or financial reasons), as well as his stories. I will certainly remember the rock that glowed in the dark. I wish every webinar flowed like this one.” -Natalie
