Education and professional development are central to the work of the Virgin Islands University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities.

Interdisciplinary pre-service preparation and continuing education are among VIUCEDD’s four core functions.

Through interdisciplinary learning opportunities, VIUCEDD works to strengthen knowledge and practice among students, professionals, service providers, educators, and others working with individuals with developmental disabilities.

Learning Across Disciplines

An interdisciplinary approach brings together individuals from different professional and educational backgrounds to strengthen services and improve outcomes for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.

VIUCEDD’s educational activities include opportunities connected with programs such as Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND), as well as continuing education and professional development.

Continuing Education

VIUCEDD also provides multidisciplinary educational opportunities beyond traditional classroom learning.

Recorded educational materials are made available through VIUCEDD’s Educational Video Vault, including Professional Development resources and continuing education content.
