NOVEMBER
1-2, 2012
The
2-day workshop teaches the attendees how to use the
ADOS in clinical practice or educational assessment
to assess and diagnose or determine eligibility of autism.
Our expert training staff will describe the ADOS and
demonstrate administration and scoring for educational
eligibility. Instructional methods include lecture,
videotaped administration and scoring, and discussion.
Participants will have the opportunity to practice scoring
while observing the administration of the ADOS. Participants
will also have practice administering the ADOS.
The
workshop is designed for clinicians and educational
personal with a prior background in autism and formal
testing, for example: physicians, psychologists, school
psychologists, educational diagnosticians, speech/language
pathologists, occupational therapists, counselors, and
social workers. Individuals with less background in
testing but who provide service for individuals and
families affected by autism may take the workshop for
informational purposes. This workshop is limited
to 25 participants.
