This session is designed as an introductory overview of the Hawaii Early Learning Profile (HELP), a curriculum based global assessment tool. Through the use of lecture, group discussion and activities, the history, purpose and objectives of the HELP are presented. Basic administration and scoring protocol are also reviewed. Although this workshop is not intended as proficient instruction in the use of this assessment tool, it does meet the global assessment training requirement for the Illinois Early Intervention System's Developmental Therapy credential.
