Davis Autism Approach® Workshop CST timezone
2026-05-04 - 2026-05-08 | Online (CST time zone), WI, United States
The Davis Autism Approach® offers a revolutionary five-day workshop designed for parents, educators, professionals, and autistic adults seeking breakthrough strategies for support or self-understanding. This transformative approach focuses on abilities rather than deficits.
A Neurodivergent-Created Approach
What makes this workshop unique is its origin, developed by Ron Davis, a neurodivergent individual who is autistic. Unlike traditional interventions that focus on behavior modification, the Davis method addresses root causes by working with natural thinking styles and perceptual talents. The approach recognizes the unique gifts that come with autism and creates lasting transformation through conceptual understanding.
Addressing Real Challenges
The workshop tackles the frustrations families and professionals face: unpredictable meltdowns, communication barriers, sensory overwhelm, limited progress with traditional interventions, and difficulty with routine changes. Through innovative clay modeling techniques that make abstract concepts concrete, participants learn to understand autism from an autistic perspective.
What You’ll Learn
The comprehensive program covers

Davis Tools for Orientation and Self-Regulation to help with focus and calm
Clay Modeling Techniques to establish foundational concepts through tactile learning
Social Navigation strategies to build meaningful connections
Independence Building strategies to foster greater autonomy
Anxiety Reduction approaches to minimize meltdowns and stress.

Transformative Results
One parent shared how her non-speaking son Logan transformed after the workshop. Within months of guiding Logan through what she learned, he began reading, writing, and creating, developed understanding of complex math concepts, and gained confidence for new experiences like traveling and school trips. Participants typically report increased communication, reduced anxiety, better sensory regulation, and improved social interactions after implementing the approach with their loved one.

Gift of Dyslexia Workshop (in German) – Online – Berlin, Germany
2026-06-13 - 2026-06-16 | Online (Germany/ CET), Berlin, Germany

Davis Gift of Dyslexia® Workshop – LIVE Online – North America June 15-19, 2026
2026-06-15 | Online (US Mountain Time), United States
A 5-day workshop giving parents, educators, and professionals practical tools to support dyslexic individuals in one-on-one settings. Also the first step in training to become a licensed Davis Dyslexia Facilitator.
Dyslexia isn’t a defect. It’s a different way of thinking.
Your child is bright, creative, and perceptive, yet reading feels like a battle every single day. Letters move. Words blur. The harder they try, the more frustrated they get. And despite all the effort, the gap between what they’re capable of and what they can do on paper just keeps growing.
If you support someone with dyslexia, as a parent, teacher, or therapist, you’ve probably already tried a lot. Phonics programs. Extra tutoring. Specialist assessments. Some things helped a little. Many didn’t.
The Davis Gift of Dyslexia® Workshop starts from a different premise entirely: dyslexia isn’t a defect or a structural problem. It stems from a perceptual talent, the same ability that gives dyslexic individuals exceptional spatial awareness, creativity, and three-dimensional thinking. The problem is that no one has shown them how to control it.
This workshop gives you the tools to do that.
What makes this different
The Davis Method was developed by Ron Davis, who was labeled severely learning disabled as a child and struggled with reading until age 38, when he discovered he was causing the symptoms, and more importantly, how to stop them. That discovery became the foundation of the Davis Method, now used by trained facilitators in over 40 countries.
The approach works with how dyslexic individuals actually think, in pictures, not words. Rather than drilling phonics or forcing memorization, it uses two core procedures:
Davis Orientation Counseling gives the individual a way to control disorientation — the perceptual state that causes letters to move, words to blur, and confusion to spiral. Once they can turn disorientation off, they can perceive written language accurately and consistently.
Davis Symbol Mastery resolves the root cause of reading difficulty — the confusion about the meaning of letters, words, and language symbols. Using hands-on clay modeling, the individual builds a genuine conceptual understanding of each symbol, eliminating the confusion that triggers disorientation in the first place.
No drilling. No repetition for its own sake. No telling them to try harder. Instead, a clear, structured process that works with the way their brain is already wired, enabling true mastery.
What changes after this workshop
Parents, teachers, and professionals who have completed the Davis Gift of Dyslexia® Workshop consistently report seeing individuals who:

Read with greater accuracy and less frustration
Stop reversing, skipping, or misreading letters and words
Understand and retain what they’ve read
Feel less overwhelmed and more confident in learning situations
Develop genuine understanding of language symbols rather than relying on memorization or coping strategies
Begin to see their dyslexia as a strength, not a barrier

Results vary by individual, and progress takes time. But you’ll leave this workshop with a complete set of procedures you can apply straight away, and a clear understanding of why each one works.
Workshop details

Duration: 5 days (June 15-19, 2026. 8am – 4pm Mountain Time)
Investment: US$1,595
Who it’s for: Parents and caregivers of dyslexic children; teachers, tutors, and educational therapists; allied health professionals; and anyone considering becoming a Davis Facilitator

Davis Learning Strategies Workshop - Live - Online - US Timezone
2026-06-25 09:00 - 2026-06-26 16:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Online, Christchurch, New Zealand
Are you a teacher struggling to meet the diverse learning needs of your students, provide individualised instruction, and maintain engagement among all learners, particularly for those who appear disinterested or struggle to focus?
Or are you a parent who feels there’s something not quite right about how your child is responding to reading teaching at school — and you want to safeguard your child’s future as a fluent reader and inquisitive learner?
Are you a professional providing educational support and feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of students requiring assistance with learning difficulties, and the limited resources available to support them?
Would you like…

More effective strategies for managing (and even reducing) disruptive behaviour and fostering a positive learning environment in your classroom?

Simple, innovative and effective teaching tools that level the playing field, significantly reduce the onset of learning difficulties, and allow ALL children to learn, regardless of their learning style?

Greater awareness and understanding into how bright but struggling learners think, as you learn how to empower them to become independent and confident in their learning?

What are the Davis Learning Strategies?
Davis Learning Strategies (DLS) are a versatile, creative, and multisensory pathway to reading fluency and learner self-awareness, especially tailored for young learners up to the age of 9.
Research indicates that DLS are effective at:

preventing the onset of special educational needs
increasing the likelihood that a child will emerge as a gifted and talented learner.

DLS create firm foundations in pre-reading skills, integrating with a school’s existing reading teaching strategies. DLS is a good complementary solution for children who have so far struggled with basic sight word recognition, phonic-based reading instruction, reading comprehension and spelling.
Simply put — it is the missing piece that makes everything else start working.
More about the program
This intensive workshop will equip you with:
Effective strategies for positive learning

Enrich your teaching, homeschooling or parenting with practical mental strategies, fostering self-awareness and self-regulation for a calmer and more effective classroom environment.
Implement strategies to foster greater self-awareness and effective self-regulation, empowering children to take control of their focus and energy levels and improve their emotional well-being.
Help your students develop essential lifelong “how to learn” skills.
Experience a significant reduction in behavioural issues; enhance a child’s understanding of where behaviours come from.

Pod Week 1 – Online-New Zealand
2027-03-15 - 2027-03-19 | Davis Pacific, Online, New Zealand, 3334, Select a Country:
This training ensures professional standards of quality for providing 5-day Davis programs are fully developed and understood. Students work in groups of 3 (pods) under the supervision of a Davis Specialist, in one of the following roles for a full week:

Providing a 5-day Davis Program.
Receiving a 5-day Program.
Observing a Program.

Students must complete 3 pod weeks – one in each role. The roles are not done in a specific order, e.g., some students may provide a program during their first Pod Week, while others may provide a program in their third Pod Week. The Pod Weeks are scheduled by availability of roles: each group of three must have a provider, a client, and an observer. Therefore scheduling is subject to forming groups of three students who all have complimentary roles. The observing and providing roles may need to be repeated to improve skills. Includes individual supervisor consultations, Client Kit in the “receive program” Pod Week, and handbook of forms required for providing Davis programs. Group discussions and short lectures are led by a Specialist are held throughout the Pod Weeks. These further prepare a student for providing Davis programs in a professional, business setting.
