Online Autism Course

This online training was developed by the Illinois Autism/PDD Training and Technical Assistance Project (IATTAP), Illinois State University (ISU) and the Early Intervention Project to bring you information on the history of ASD, the DSM IV classification, characteristics associated with ASD, how we identify, the current prevalence of ASD and an overview of educational strategies based on areas of concern. You can access the modules in this course as many times as you would like. Between each module there is a gateway "reality check" that will serve as an entry point into the next module. You will be allowed to take the "reality check" twice and you must receive a score of 80% or better to move on. In addition to receive credit you must complete the assignments attached to each module. The authors of this project are offering this program as a comprehensive foundational program.
