The College Internship Program (CIP) has announced dates and locations for their 2021 summer programs for teens and young adults with autism and other learning differences.

Next summer, CIP will offer Summer@CIP, their traditional two-week in-person program at five highly-rated college locations in addition to SummerSessions@CIP, a virtual program that was successfully launched last year. The 2021 schedule has been designed to provide multiple options for families due to any possible restrictions surrounding COVID-19. All programs will be offered between June 27th through August 6th, 2021. Program dates and locations can be found on CIP's website.

CIP is one of the world’s most comprehensive transition programs for teens and young adults with autism and other learning differences, offering support with college, independent living, and employment.

"The transition from adolescence to young adulthood for people with learning differences is a critical time in one's life," commented CIP President Dan McManmon. ”Our tight-knit groups of participants will learn strategies for making a well-prepared transition to life after high school including independent living skills, practice socialization and recreation, and college readiness, all in a very safe and structured environment.”

The traditional two-week summer program will be offered on-site at five college campuses where students will live in college dorms and experience a taste of college life. Students will learn new skills that are embedded in CIP’s cutting edge programming that has been crafted to meet the unique needs and interests of students who learn differently. Participants will also spend time with peers exploring activities in the surrounding community with an emphasis on making new friends and having fun.

The virtual program will be offered Monday-Friday July 19-30. Participants will benefit from CIP’s expert staffing, small group cohorts, and ample opportunities for fun and socializing such as virtual escape rooms and scavenger hunts. Participants enroll in SummerSessions@CIP from across the US and internationally. Parent workshops will also be offered.

Kristen, a parent of a recent participant stated “Cameron had a wonderful time, and the summer program really exceeded our expectations, honestly. It’s usually hard to engage students online for so many hours per day, but Cameron came off every evening feeling energized and happy. Thank you.”

CIP has specialized in the educational needs of teens and young adults with autism and learning differences for over 35 years, offering year-round residential and summer transition program options with unparalleled supports since 1984. CIP’s summer programs are designed to offer a pathway for families to help them determine the best next steps for their young adults with learning differences.

From MS Suzanne Murray Bed Hons NPQH:

As a Consultant, in the field of Safeguarding, Child Protection, Wellbeing and Inclusion, and as an educator, I believe that my understanding and approach to my work has been shaped by my deep understanding of learning organisations. I offer a range of services to support the education, safeguarding and protection of children in education, sport, extra-curricular and extended learning environments. I believe that policy is only effective when evident in practice and work to ensure that schools and organisations can adopt a strategic approach in a practical manner, allowing for a consistent understanding and implementation. The embedding of a “Culture of Care” which ensures that safeguarding is dovetailed with and builds on excellent pastoral care and wellbeing, ensure that children needs are prioritised and that actions speak louder than words.

Previously as Safeguarding Manager – Asia for the Cognita group, I developed and implemented a safeguarding strategy, within a “Culture of Care” ensuring consistent of practice across all Asia Schools and organizations within the group. I acted as an advisor, supporting training and development, implementation of safeguarding curriculum, case, crisis, and allegations management.

As a skilled administrator, with extensive leadership and management experience in 5 schools, I have led strategic, operational, and cultural change in education. I have experience of conducting school safeguarding reviews in national and international settings. My position and various roles have offered me the opportunity to public speaker at national level in the UK and Internationally and to contribute to the training of others.

I believe we have a responsibility to prepare children for the 21st Century and am I passionate in my belief that we have a moral duty to safeguard and protect all children in all learning environments.

Don’t just take our word for it, here are some of the positive things our delegates have had to say about us and our courses:

“For the first time I actually understand what I am aiming for in my job. All the practical tasks were applied in reality and really helped. The depth of understanding and a sense of what my job is supposed to be empowered me and transformed the way I carry out my job. It is the first training I have done which actually trains you for the job you do. Definitely do it. It's the best course I have ever taken and I have completed a degree, Masters, a Grad Dip, an AMBDA, a PGCE, and now this!!”  - Sarah Brown completed iSENCO 2020, based in France.

“The course staff are experienced, knowledgeable and helpful. The materials are relevant and reusable long after the course is over.

I took the course to deepen my own knowledge and to have a more structured approach to headship and you have met those needs head on and in an enjoyable but informative manner." - Liam Bellamy completed NPHG 2020, based in Bahrain.

RLC offers customized training programs that provide ecosystem-wide solutions to transform school cultures with processes and pedagogical practices designed for the 21st-century learner. We believe that Design Thinking, with empathy at its core, is the key to create a unique and user-centered approach to learning and building school systems. RLC uses this approach in its training programs to transform schools from a standardized “one size fits all approach” to schools that value agency, co-creation, and character over compliance, instruction, and only content.

The Six Pillar Platform

The Six Pillar Platform is a robust framework of processes and practices under the six pillars of Curriculum, Parent Partnership, Community, Personal & Professional Development, Admin and Leadership. Purposeful practice of these processes under the Six Pillars cultivates what we refer to as a HumanE Ecosystem.

Theoryofknowledge.net was founded in 2009 by Michael Dunn. He was fed up with students solely exploring the IB Theory of Knowledge course (TOK) using textbooks that, although undoubtedly well-written and up-to-date when written, soon lost their relevance and impact upon publication.

Our resources are updated each and every month, ensuring they are truly relevant and real-world. Theoryofknowledge.net provides a library of authentic resources to approach TOK teaching the traditional way and also via the development of the Big Question Framework, which offers a completely new approach to TOK. It takes teachers away from the shopping list mentality of moving through the course via the themes and areas of knowledge. It also makes it much easier to create a fully-integrated course across the other Diploma subjects.

The recent addition of a new DP Integration Tool delivers a time-saving and inspiring method of supporting integration. The latest resource addition is the pre-TOK course and the Middle Years Newsletter which are designed for students aged 12 - 15, to help them engage with the latest events and issues going on in the world, and develop their understanding via discussion, activities, and further research. Members and non-members can also explore TOK learning and development opportunities via Michael's regular free and paid-for webinars and also via online or in-school workshops.

Theoryofknowledge.net is dedicated to revolutionizing not just resources for TOK, but also how to conceive of the course itself. We pride ourselves on encouraging real-world critical thinking - amongst both learners and educators. Today we have just over 1,100 member schools using our resources and showing their appreciation for our approach to TOK.

From humble beginnings in a garage in England to supplying over 84 countries across the globe, we have been talking to educators and inventing new reasons for children to love learning for over 30 years. With your help, we have created thousands of reasons to love learning and each year around 400 new resources are invented. From printed books to programmable floor robots, we keep on inventing because you tell us to, and because everyone loves a “wow”. LEARN MORE
