Prompting Strategies

Prompts can help your students access age-appropriate education and be able to
express their understanding with accuracy.

“The ideas I have in my head try to find their way out, but often get stuck and need prompting to get unstuck.”

We believe communication is a basic human right.

from our modules?

Listen to Nonspeaking Presenters

Our team at Communication for Education believes very deeply that any training created to support nonspeaking autistic people needs to be informed by their lived experiences and expertise. From its inception, our course has been designed to include the voices of nonspeakers, both as contributors and content reviewers.

Hear from Powerhouse Professionals

When we developed our training for folks supporting nonspeaking individuals, we knew that we needed to include as many lived experiences as possible, both from nonspeaking autistic individuals themselves and from a diverse group of thought leaders in the disability community. Our work is shaped by some incredibly knowledgeable and experienced professionals as well.

Download Course PDFs and Resources

Each module of our course offers pages of handouts in downloadable PDFs. You'll have access to key concepts from the module, words of wisdom from nonspeakers, and references for the research that supports the module, and lists for further reading from more books and websites.

Learn with our Team

Our core instructional team consists of Dr. Edlyn Peña, Lisa Mihalich Quinn, and Julie Sando. Together the three have trained more than 350 communication partners to serve nonspeaking students in educational, home, social, and community settings.

“When I set an intention or goal that involves more
body control, the biggest thing I need is patience. I
need lots of support through prompting at the
start. And as I develop the motor pathways the
prompts can be faded. It is tedious but effective
when practiced consistently.”
