In fact, many preschool teachers experience difficulty in recognizing children with special needs with various characteristics. Difficulties in detecting children with special needs can only identified after they attend elementary school which is late and more complicated.

The early detection in the context of providing appropriate educational services to avoid learning problems in the future. This article propose a design of training intervention for teachers so that it enables them to increase their understanding of children with special needs.
