Description
For all our ADOS-2 courses at Mindful there is a prerequisite training required - the ASD Assessment Fundamentals, 2 day workshop. At Mindful our training is supported by Department of Health and Human Services and our mandate is to provided high quality ASD training that is accessible and affordable for clinicians, particularly those working in CAMHS/CYMHS.As our ASD training calendar is designed for mental health clinicians working with complex clients, we have made the ASD Assessment Fundamentals a prerequisite to the ADOS-2 training as it covers all the components of a comprehensive ASD assessment. The ADOS-2 is one component of an ASD Assessment and we would like to ensure that all clinicians attending have a broad understanding of the complexities of ASD assessment.
