The ADOS-2 is a semi-structured, standardized assessment of social communication and play or imaginative use of materials used with individuals suspected of having autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The ADOS-2 can be used to evaluate individuals at different developmental levels and chronological ages, from toddlers to adults, from individuals with no speech to those who are verbally fluent.
This virtual workshop, delivered via Zoom, uses a lecture format and video demonstrations to introduce the basic principles of administering and scoring the ADOS-2 and provides an essential step toward competence in using the ADOS-2 in everyday practice. Participants will gain a fundamental understanding of Modules 1-4 and experience observing and scoring assessments with the support of a trainer and materials provided.
This workshop is designed for evaluators and clinicians with prior background in ASD and formal testing, such as licensed specialists in school psychology, speech-language pathologists, social workers, behavior analysts, occupational therapists, and other clinicians/researchers in autism assessment.
