Description:
This one-day conference is designed to provide consultants, therapists, and
parents who serve children in the Autism Spectrum with an introduction to
the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills - Revised (The

assessment tool, curriculum guide, and skills-tracking system used to help
guide the instruction of language and critical learner skills for children
with autism or other developmental disabilities. This powerful tool is now

others who design, coordinate, and/or supervise language or
skill-acquisition programs.
