The support pedagogue is responsible for implementing an ethical approach within the work team that promotes the assistance user's/client's self-determination, participation, integrity, and sense of security. Support pedagogues within the department are part of an overarching network led by a methods developer. Colleagues from other operations regularly meet to exchange experiences and develop work approaches for the entire department.
