Workshops introduction
Stepping Stones ABA School for children with Autism is delighted to present an annual series of workshops targeted towards teachers, parents, tutors and professionals. Workshops range from introductory level which familiarises participants with scientifically based procedures to develop effective programming for children with autism, to more advanced training in managing problem behaviours in school and home settings. Workshops will provide hands-on training from Senior Behaviour Analysts. The emphasis will be on translating research into practical applications, with extensive use of video taped case studies.
