Pyramid Educational Consultants in Italy has drawn enthusiastic attention in mid-October 2025 through its groundbreaking collaboration with the Provincial Library of Matera to launch the “A Library for Inclusion” initiative, aimed at transforming public spaces into accessible environments for children with communication challenges. Announced just two days ago, this partnership kicks off with specialized PECS Overview Training sessions scheduled for October 20 and November 7, equipping library staff with evidence-based tools to support diverse learners. This forward-thinking project not only enhances community resources but also exemplifies Pyramid’s commitment to fostering equity in education, earning praise for bridging cultural institutions with innovative behavioral strategies.

Earlier in the year, on January 29, 2025, the company’s Clinical Director Laura Berteotti was elected to the board of the Italian Society of Behavior Analysts, a prestigious role that amplifies Pyramid’s influence in shaping national standards for applied behavior analysis. This appointment highlights Berteotti’s expertise and the organization’s leadership in promoting ethical, inclusive practices across Italy’s educational landscape. The recognition underscores Pyramid’s growing impact on policy and training, inspiring professionals to adopt Pyramid Approach methodologies for better outcomes in autism support and beyond.

These milestones coincide with exciting developments like the recent availability of the PECSTalk app in Arabic, expanding global access to communication aids for multilingual families. Coupled with upcoming online courses such as “9 Critical Communication Skills” on October 25 and “Transition to Voice Output Devices” on October 26, Pyramid continues to deliver timely, accessible training that empowers educators and parents alike. This surge of positive initiatives positions the company as a vital force in Italy’s education sector, driving measurable progress in lifelong learning and social inclusion.

Pyramid Educational Consultants dedicates itself to developing lifelong communication skills as the exclusive provider of the internationally recognized Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) and the Pyramid Approach, both grounded in over 30 years of evidence-based practice. Founded to address the needs of individuals with complex communication challenges, particularly those on the autism spectrum, the organization delivers transformative strategies that enhance functional communication, reduce challenging behaviors, and promote independence for learners of all ages. Through a blend of hands-on training, innovative products, and expert consultations, Pyramid equips educators, families, and professionals with practical tools to create supportive, inclusive learning environments across diverse settings.

The company’s comprehensive services extend to online learning platforms offering certification in PECS implementation, self-paced courses on topics like emotional language and ethical collaboration in augmentative communication, and personalized consultations that guide teams in evaluating and refining educational plans. Led by renowned developers Andy Bondy, PhD, and Lori Frost, MS, CCC-SLP, Pyramid maintains a client-centered focus, ensuring every intervention aligns with individual goals while adhering to rigorous behavioral science principles. This holistic ethos not only sustains Pyramid’s legacy but also propels it forward as a cornerstone of innovative education and training in Italy.
