Overview of CAPTAIN and Evidence-Based Practices for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Description
Improve your knowledge about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and learn about effective strategies to use with both younger and older students on the spectrum. Thus training briefly introduces the participant to the characteristics of ASD and provides an overview of Evidence-Based Practices (EBPs) for ASD as identified by the National Autism Center (NAC) and XXXXXXX (XXXX). In addition, the participant is introduced to the California Autism Professional Training and Information Network (CAPTAIN), a state-wide initiative dedicated to the dissemination of EBPs for ASD. The participant will walk away with a thorough understanding of why EBPs are paramount to the success of students with ASD and learn where to locate immediate resources for planning and implementation of EBPs in educational settings.
