What's New What's New

The Texas Complex Access Network (TX CAN) has several new updates to their website.
  • 8 new online courses
  • Inclusionary Coaching Guide
  • Video Library
Completing and earning a badge on three of the 15 online courses by December 31, 2021 will get you an invitation to the 2022 TX CAN Institute.

The Inclusionary Coaching Guide is divided into 3 phases and has additional resources imbedded throughout each section.

There are 3 different series of videos: Straight Talk Parent Video Series, Administrator Series, and Excerpts from the Experts Series. Each of the videos currently posted in the Video Library are under 10 minutes, and several are less than 5 minutes, so possible to watch one or two when you just have a short amount of time available.
