This course is intended as a mini-guide aimed at teachers and operators involved in the delicate phase of guidance for students with Specific Learning Disorders. It contains indications and practical suggestions on how to support these students in the transition from secondary school to university. The course represents the effort to find proper ways of accompanying the students in the transition and sharing good practices at European level facilitating the exchange among different countries with the aim of guaranteeing the universal right to study. In drafting these indications, consideration was given to the particular characteristic of students with Specific Learning Disorders and also to the different cultural and linguistic systems that influence the evolutionary trajectory. 

The course is delivered in English. Some modules can also be provided in Italian and German.

The course is divided into 5 modules composed of videolectures and questions to assess the level of knowledge. The FIRST one provides a clear understanding of what the specific learning disorders are according to the criteria established by International Classification of Diseases 11th (ICD - 11th) and by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder 5th (DSM – 5th). It starts with a theoretical conceptualization of the disorders and their complexity to give everyone the opportunity to understand what is a learning disorder from the neuropsychological point of view. The SECOND module provides an overview of the regulations, norms, tools and services to support students with Specific Learning Disorders which are already available in each of the four partner countries as for the secondary school level. The THIRD module studies the strategies and tools provided in the academic field in the countries involved and addresses the issue of difficulties related to learning English, both as primary and secondary language. The FOURTH module is addressed to draw the role of technology as a means for compensating learning disorders and to define and share an operational model for teachers. The LAST module gives voice to the direct experiences of students with Specific Learning Disorders from all the partner countries.

At the end of each module, a multiple choice questionnaire has to be carried out online in order to acquire the attendance certificate and the open badge.
