Baby TALK Professional Association

 

What is the Baby TALK Professional Association?

After participating in a Baby TALK Training, you become a "Certified Baby TALK Practitioner". The Baby TALK Professional Association (BTPA) is a collaboration of Certified Baby TALK Practitioners that are using Baby TALK methods and materials in their work with young families. By systemizing communication, the intention of the BTPA is to provide ongoing support and resources to our colleagues.

How would I benefit by being a member of the BTPA?

Current certification status allows you to use Baby TALK Curriculum, Baby TALK Materials, Baby TALK logos, and Baby TALK literature. Upon re-enrollment into the BTPA your Baby TALK Practitioner Certification is automatically renewed.

In addition to keeping certification current, other benefits of the BTPA include:

  • 10% discount on Baby TALK Training and Materials
