Event description
Autism SA has a highly experienced and diverse training team which includes consultants, occupational therapists, speech pathologists and facilitators who have extensive experience in working with individuals on the autism spectrum in a range of settings.
Autism SA presents training that is hands-on, practical and engaging. The emphasis is on guiding participants through a range of activities to increase their knowledge, understanding and confidence in implementing relevant intervention strategies for their particular setting.
All participants will receive a certificate with the workshop title, the number of hours and will state that the training links to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (where appropriate).
This In Focus Workshop is designed for professionals who have a sound understanding of autism and want a better understanding of how to effectively set up A and B Choices in their setting. Presented by experienced consultants, participants learn how to use the strengths of people on the spectrum to utilise programs and strategies such as ‘The Way to A ©’ and Social Behaviour Mapping.
The workshop demonstrates how to teach people on the spectrum what ‘A’ and ‘B’ choices are, and how to increase ‘A’ choices in a range of educational and community settings. These programs and strategies can be implemented for individuals on the spectrum, and for groups of people as whole site approaches.
