Teacher/Parent Consultations

How do we access consultation? 
A preschool teacher can call Project Enlightenment and ask for a Request for Consultation form.  Both the parent and teacher sign and complete the form and return it to Project Enlightenment.  A consultant will contact the school to plan an observation.

Please note for students in preschool or childcare, referrals received after May 1st will be scheduled based on the availability (due to the current waiting list) of the Teacher Parent Consultant (TPC). If waiting lists are long, TPC services may be transferred to another available TPC or consultation services may be delayed until the beginning of the next school year.

Parent Services

What parent workshops do you offer?
Each year, parent workshops are available on a variety of topics relating to children. Please refer to the Workshops Section of this website under Parent Resources. The current brochure is available under the Parents section of this website.

Do parent workshops have a fee?
There is a small fee for parent workshops. However, we do not want the fee to keep a Wake County parent from attending. Please see the Workshop section of the website or the parent education workshop brochure for fee information.

Can I bring my child to a parent workshop? Do you offer babysitting?
Our parent workshops are geared towards adult education. Unfortunately, we do not have child care available at Project Enlightenment so please make other arrangements for your children.

I was told I had to take a parenting course. Can you give me a certificate for attending the course?
Certificates of attendance are available. The instructor must know ahead of time that you need this document. Please call our office at 856-7774, ext. 27025 to speak with the registrar.

General Workshop Questions

Can I pay for a workshop by credit or debit card when I register?
Yes, you can pay by credit card with a Visa, Mastercard or Discover card online only. At this time, do not have the capability to process a credit card for an "in person" transaction. If you prefer you can write a check and mail it to us. Your registration form and payment reserve your space in a workshop(s).
