Courses
on CDs for the
training of adoptive parents
and professionals
Self-study courses on CDs have the same
content as the corresponding online courses, but they are not
interactive and do not have tests and questionnaires. CD courses
are designed for adoptive parents, teachers and other professionals
who are not interested in a certificate of completion, but would
like to have the access to information beyond the time limit of
an online class.
