Event Description

  • Face 2 Face
  • All

This workshop is a great starting point for individuals that have recently been diagnosed, or their family members. Upon completion, participants will have a better understanding of the characteristics of autism, including possible strengths and challenges, and knowledge of a range of strategies, therapies and practices that are available. The presenter will also go over some of the service and funding options available that may be accessible. This workshop also offers an opportunity to meet others on the spectrum and parents/carers of individuals on the spectrum.

If this workshop is full, please contact Emma Bennett on ebennett@autismsa.org.au.

 

Workshop Definitions

General Workshops are designed to give participants an introduction to understanding the autism spectrum and provides workshop participants with the knowledge of key strategies to support individuals in a range of settings.

In Focus Workshops are designed for participants who have a good, current understanding of autism and are looking for a more in-depth understanding relating to a particular area of the autism field. This greater knowledge in turn provides greater confidence in applying strategies to support individuals in this area. It is recommended that participants attend an Autism SA General Workshop prior to attending an In-Focus Workshop or Masterclass unless they have a good, current understanding of autism.

Masterclass Workshops are based on the concept that there is always more to learn. Masterclasses are short intensive workshops that are designed to provide participants who already have a sound current understanding of autism, with specific and extended content relating to a particular topic, strategy or program.

For all NDIS funding, workshops will be included under:
