Facilitating Attuned Interactions

Catalog description

The FAN is a conceptual model and practical tool for relationship-building and reflective practice based on the concept of attunement; that is, if persons feel connected and understood, they are open to learning and change. The FAN operationalizes the concept of attunement into practical strategies for engagement that are used widely across systems in early childhood and beyond. Students will learn the theory behind the FAN and practice its use, focusing on attunement to their own experience of the interaction as well as those they are working with. Students will receive FAN Level I and Level II Certification.
