Addressing Challenging Behaviours of Children with Autism &
other Special Needs
Dates: Wednesday, November 3 &
10, 2010
Time:
6:00 to 9:00 p.m. both evenings.
This two-part workshop will do more than just teach participants
to "manage" challenging behaviours including, but not
limited to, aggression, self-injury, pica, stereotypic (self-stimulatory)
behaviours, and destruction. The emphasis in this workshop is
on the identification of the function of the behaviour. All behaviour,
even those we deem inappropriate, serve a function. Participants
will learn how to conduct a functional analysis of the behaviour
(not just an ABC chart), identify appropriate replacement behaviours,
and teach functional communication in order to create meaningful
behaviour change that maintains over time.
Early bird registration before September 1, 2010: $110.00
Registration fee after September 1, 2010: $130.00
Current BCTS clients, Autism Ontario members and students: $100.00
Intermediate Curriculum in ABA Programming
Dates: Saturday, November 27 and December 4, 2010
Time: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. both days.
The two-day intermediate curriculum workshop will focus on teaching
strategies to address higher level language skills (attributes,
prepositions, verb tense, sentence formation), academic skills
(letter- sound correspondence, early literacy, comprehension in
literacy, quantities, basic computational skills) and concept
development (categorization, temporal concepts, same/different).
Participants should be familiar with discrete-trial training as
covered in the introductory workshop above in order to fully benefit
from this workshop.

Registration fee after September 1: $240.00
