NDBI Practically — Levels 7, 8, 9 & 10

Your child is engaging and participating. What comes next?

As your child's engagement develops, the next goal is to help them become more independent, flexible and purposeful in their interactions and communication.

Social communication develops step by step.

This course helps you build on the skills your child has already developed and create more opportunities for meaningful communication, interaction and learning — with just 15 minutes a day.

What is this course about?

This course continues your learning through NDBI (Naturalistic Developmental Behavioural Interventions) — a modern, evidence-based approach to autism intervention, made practical for everyday use.

The focus now shifts towards helping your child use their skills in more meaningful and flexible ways.

Learn how to create everyday opportunities that encourage your child to initiate, respond, communicate and participate more independently.

No complicated jargon. No overwhelming theory. Just clear steps, practical demonstrations and guidance you can use with your child.

Your 4-Level Learning Journey

Level 7 — Building Independence

Level 8 — Encouraging Communication

Create opportunities for your child to communicate their needs, interests and intentions during everyday interactions.

Level 9 — Developing Flexibility

Level 10 — Meaningful Interaction

What will you learn?

Gradually reduce prompts and support to encourage independence.

Create opportunities for your child to initiate rather than always wait for adult direction.

Encourage purposeful communication during everyday activities.

Build flexibility across people, activities and situations.

Extend skills beyond familiar routines and support generalisation.

What you get

Practical video demonstrations — activities designed to build on your child's existing skills.

Why should parents continue learning?

Your child may spend only a few hours a week in therapy, but spends much of the remaining time with you.

As your child's abilities develop, your role changes too. The goal is not to direct every interaction, but to create opportunities, step back when appropriate and help your child use their skills more independently.

This course does not replace speech therapy, OT or other professional interventions. It empowers you to support your child's communication, independence and learning in everyday life.

Keep building from where your child is today.

The goal is not just participation.

It is helping your child become a more independent and meaningful communicator.
