The University of Alabama’s Gifted Education and Talent Development Office, also known as GETDO, recently launched a program to better support families of students capable of high levels of achievement.
The Talent Identification and Development Alliance for Learners Program, or TIDALua, will allow students in grades 3-8 to have their academic capabilities assessed virtually from home to support their talent development and place them in the appropriate academic environment to nurture their academic skill set.
