ABLLS-R and VB-MAPP are two communication assessment tools tailored specifically for children with language impairments and ASD. They are based on a very specific behavioural view of language learning which is presented in the one-day workshop.
Both assessments are very helpful and informative for teachers of children with ASD and attendees receive copies of these tests at the workshop. Details are provided on how to administer, score and interpret these assessments which are suitable for verbal and nonverbal children.
