This three-part series of workshops is for professionals involved with diagnosis and assessment of persons perceived to have autism. The workshop will use a case-oriented style, covering how to use the CARS-2 assessment instruments in the diagnosis of autism. The first two sessions will include case studies where the participants will practice scoring using the CARS-2 High Functioning Version and then the CARS-2 Standard Version. The third session in the series will review the factors that help with differential diagnoses. Participants can register for the 4-hour sessions individually or as a package.

A CARS-2 Rating Booklet for Sessions One and Two is required.
Registration fees include the Booklet (HF and/or ST) and shipping costs.
Every effort will be made to deliver these materials prior to the course.
