On 9 and 10 May, ESCWA and the Ministry of Social Development in Oman organized a training on the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP), adopted by the Sultanate as one of the main mechanisms for the assessment and skills-building of children suffering from speech delay and autism.

This practical training is a continuation of a first phase, which took place from 25 to 27 April and covered the theoretical framework, and during which participants were trained on using verbal behaviour to assess the communication, language skills and behaviour of children.

During the practical training, participants reviewed the theoretical content and applied some strategies, testing the acquired information and sharing it with the trainers and attendees.
