The Neurosequential Model in Education (NME) draws upon the NMT (a neurodevelopmentally-informed, biologically respectful perspective on human development and functioning) to help educators understand student behavior and performance.
The goals of NME are to educate faculty and students in basic concepts of neurosequential development and then teach them how to apply this knowledge to the teaching and learning process. NME is not a specific “intervention”; it is a way to educate school staff about brain development and developmental trauma and then to further teach them how to apply that knowledge to their work with students in and outside the classroom, particularly those students with adverse childhood experiences.

NME COURSES
​
The Neurosequential Network has developed a set of training courses to help school counselors, administrators, teachers and support staff utilize the NME with the children they serve:
​
It’s now possible for educators to enroll in our online courses! We offer two options both self-paced and led by Dr. Bruce Perry. “Understanding the NME" is a self-paced course which provides an overview of NME and illustrates ways in which educators can better understand and respond to the students they serve. We also offer a 15 hour (ten 90-minute sessions) NME Case-based Training Series which a more in depth look at NME and its applications in the classroom.

NME TRAINER PROGRAM
​
The NME Trainer Program is available for select educators to provide a basic level of exposure to core concepts and key elements necessary to bring the NME and the NME Classroom Tools into their educational setting.
The NME Trainer Program consists of ten modules, representing approximately 100 hours of training over the course of 10 months. Our program involves active participation in an online study group that meets for 1 hour two times per month.
​
STUDY GROUPS: We begin new Study Groups approximately every 2-3 months.
