About The Rankin Institute

The Rankin Institute was created in 2004 as the outreach component of The Fletcher School to provide education and resources to teachers, professionals, and parents beyond those directly involved with the academic programs at The Fletcher School. The Institute improves the quality of services and educational experiences of students with learning differences by training teachers and other professionals in the latest methodology and practices. It supports families by providing education and practical techniques for understanding and parenting their children with learning differences.
 
The Rankin Institute offers a variety of seminars to parents and professionals. It is regarded as a valuable resource by many in the community. With thousands of people educated by The Rankin Institute, the number of struggling children who are being helped is increasing exponentially. 

Community Programs & Professional Development

We invite you to explore the seminars and workshops currently offered by The Rankin Institute. Community Programs are designed for parents, professionals, and community members interested in improving the lives and services offered to students with learning differences and ADHD. The Professional Development series provides continuing education credit for teachers and interested professionals.  

The courses are designed to provide tools for teaching students with learning disabilities and ADHD, but are beneficial for all students.
