In this interactive session, participants will learn how the National Professional Development Center on Autism (NPDC) model supports the use of evidence-based practices for autistic students in preschool through high school settings.

This online training is designed for professionals who work with autistic students across school ages. The information shared is relevant for early career and experienced teachers, related service providers, paraeducators, coaches/technical assistance providers, and administrators. The strategies discussed can be used in both inclusive and separate settings.

 
In this one-day virtual sessions, participants will:

1)     Select evidence-based practices to address a student goal,
2)     Identify roles and responsibilities of teachers and paraeducators when implementing evidence-based practices,
3)     Address key areas of need for autistic students (e.g., independence and adaptive skills, social-communication needs, school readiness and academics, and interfering behaviors) using evidence-based practices, and
4)     Develop a classroom plan to enhance team implementation of evidence-based practices in their setting.

 
Training will include both didactic instruction and small group discussion. Participants must leave cameras on and complete a brief survey to obtain CEUs and a Certification of Completion.
