This course is designed to increase recognition and appropriate care of children who have been adversely affected by prenatal exposure to alcohol. Many clinicians, teachers and most families, have limited clinical expertise in this relatively un-publicised syndrome. The course will therefore be beneficial to professionals and families alike and will help them to develop increased understanding of the issues and the possible responses and interventions.
