This 2-day course will introduce the SCERTS model, a comprehensive, multidisciplinary educational approach designed for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).This model is not exclusive of other treatment approaches and methodologies, but rather provides a framework for those who are seeking guidelines for implementing a comprehensive educational plan that is based on our knowledge of the core developmental challenges faced by children with ASD, family-centered care, and our knowledge of the recommended tenets of educational programming, as indicated by the National Academy of Sciences. The model was designed to provide guidelines for helping children progress through the stages of becoming a competent social communicator. It was also designed to provide families and educational teams with the help they may need to feel successful in supporting the child.
Participants of this course will learn how to determine meaningful, purposeful, and motivating goals based on a child’s developmental stage, functional needs, and family priorities. Additionally, participants will learn how to determine essential interpersonal modifications, environmental arrangement, and visual supports and how they can be embedded in natural, functional and meaningful contexts.Videos will be integrated to illustrate how SCERTS can be utilized to develop programming. An emphasis will be placed on problem solving how the SCERTS practice principles can be applied to ensure that children are: 1) maintaining active engagement in everyday activities, 2) making smooth and independent transitions across natural routines at home, at school, and in the community, and 3) expressing their emotion and using coping strategies in a conventional manner.
