This event has passed Get tickets

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 specific knowledge in effective utilisation of ‘The Incredible 5-Point Scale’ program.

Autism SA, in consultation with the author, has developed a workshop based on Kari Dunn Buron and Mitzi Curtis’ ‘The Incredible 5-Point Scale’ program. The program talks in ‘numbers’ rather than using “socially and emotionally laden words”. Autism SA staff have implemented the program in a variety of environments, finding the scale to be a highly effective strategy as it draws on one of the strengths of people on the spectrum - to follow systems.

Topics include:

  • • The philosophy behind the program;
  • • Overview of the program, including hands-on activities;
  • • Looking at the range of 5 Point Scale resources;
  • • How to implement the program for individuals, groups, classrooms and across whole sites (including schools); and
  • • How to monitor, tweak and review the program to ensure success.

Throughout the workshop the presenter will use discussion, activities and videos to deliver information on this program to enhance the participant’s knowledge in implementing The Incredible 5 Point Scale, enabling them to provide effective support, improved inclusion and outcomes for individuals.
