Brief summary: Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a technology-based parent school program designed for parents of toddlers to be improved their parenting abilities.

Design: A parallel group, randomized controlled trial. Method: The study will be conducted with parents whose children are between the ages of 18 and 24 months in a hospital's well-child outpatient clinic in Turkey. The study data will be analyzed using the Parent and Child Descriptive Data Form, the Parent Skill List, Toddler Skill List, and the Turkish Version of Self-Efficacy for Parenting Tasks Index-Toddler Scale. The program will be continued for 10 weeks in the intervention group and will be included five web-based modules, five online group interactions after each module, and consultation throughout the program and the follow-up period. The modules will be included topics such as the child's physical growth, cognitive and linguistic development, and social-emotional development. The modules will be supported by videos and messages. This study will be based on Meleis' Transition Theory.
