This workshop helps participants understand how the environment affects human behaviour. It covers the basics of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), an evidenced-based teaching strategy for children and youth with Autism. Simple strategies covered include reinforcement, prompting and creating an environment which promotes positive learning outcomes.

This workshop provides strategies based on the principles of ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis) for helping your child their play skills.  You will learn about the stages of play from independent toy play to more advanced cooperative play with others.

Does your child engage in behaviours that interfere with their participation or independence within their everyday life? Certain behaviours can be challenging to manage, like severe tantrums or aggressing towards others. This workshop will teach you the ABCs of behaviour and how to identify the ‘why’ behind your child engaging in these behaviours. We will also help you to be able to define what these interfering behaviours look like and figure out in what situations or environments these behaviours are most likely to occur. This workshop is for families who have already attended the “Introduction to Applied Behaviour Analysis” workshop and want to understand more about their child’s interfering behaviour. This workshop may be especially useful for those families of children with a new Autism diagnosis
