About This Webinar
According to the OECD Study of Social and Emotional Skills, Ottawa 15-year-olds exhibited lower levels than 10-year-olds for most social and emotional skills. The differences are particularly pronounced when it comes to optimism, trust, energy, sociability, and empathy. What is the study revealing about our young people and how can we work together to successfully cultivate social and emotional skills in our young people? Join Dr. David Tranter as he discusses the survey results and provides practical solutions for parents and educators.

This 2-hr event will be moderated by Lucie Bohac, Lisgar Parent Council Co-Chair.
