High Functioning Autism in Children

Very good course with information I can start using with my students immediately

This course was very interesting and informative.

Good review of High Functioning Autism.

This was a very relevant course for me. I enjoyed it and learned a great deal. It's just a lot of information to take in so reviewing the material often will be effective for me.

I appreciated the breakdown of social skills children with HFA have to learn.

This is a very good course. The information was presented in very clear terms.

Love the break down!

Content was presented in a logical format and was easy to follow.

Great course!!!

Thank you for a very meaningful and important course. I hope to be more successful with children with HFA after taking it.

I would recommend this class to others

Another great and useful CEU. Filled with many "take it to work tomorrow" ideas/material. Thank you

Thank you so much for this course!  As an OT and grandmother of a 2 year old, beautiful, non-verbal toddler, I found this material especially enlightening.

A great course! Wonderfully presented!

It has so much information. I will definitely keep going over and over the reading and am so glad I have the PDF copies of the materials so I can continue to learn these concepts.  Invaluable information.

A great resource of information!

It was well organized and informative.

Good, comprehensive course with very helpful suggestions.

Very good with the communication pieces.

Great information, really enjoyed this course.

This course was perfect and very informative!

A valuable resource for any clinician working with this population. I was familiar with quite a few of the interventions and supports described but there were also some new ones that I will explore! Great course. Thank you.

Excellent course with a lot of practical references.

Loved this course! Very well organized and presented in an efficient and effective manner.Appropriate for the beginner as well as the experienced clinician.

I love the lay out and organization of materials. I will use this as a reference for the future.

I really enjoy this class. I always thought that that kids or adults with HFA dislike social gathering and had numerous difficulties with concepts that children that do not have the diagnosis. I learned that the symptoms could diminish over time and some can live a normal life within the condition. I’m graceful I had the opportunity of taking this course. Well done!

This course was amazing. The content and the explanations were ready to use with children I have in speech therapy. It clearly provided information in such depth that I learned a great deal. It was very organized, gave definitions, examples, and stressed the most valuable information in such a way that it was immediately learned. This will be used as a reference tool also.

Excellent course. The content helped me to understand and appreciate the differences in all people. Well presented and organized.

Great course! The information was clear and very informative. I will be able to use it in my practice serving kids.

I learned many strategies to support those identified with ASD/HFA and benefited from a review of the strategies I use. I plan to further research the resources given. I will take more courses through your company. I love that I have the entire presentation saved for future reference.

Easy reading- very interesting and helpful to my work at school.

I think this course is excellent and necessary since Asperger's syndrome has been eliminated as a diagnosis. Thank you for the research and relevant distinctions made between HFA and autism!

I loved the specific examples and will be back to visit this document as a resource. I will also refer this course to others. Nicely done!

This course contained so much updated and very relevant material from some of the leading researchers and clinicians in the area of High Functioning Autism, along with very helpful practical suggestions for clinicians, educators, and parents.

This course was very well organized, and the information presented was thorough. One of the best courses I have taken through PDR so far!

Another excellent course that served as a refresher for me as well as some updated material.  Well worth my time.  Thanks!

Highly organized with great strategies. PDR courses always  give me a fuller understanding of some of my paitents and provide ways that I can  improve their daily lives and help support their families. That's what makes me happy. Thank you!

Definitely learned some nice strategies when not only working with this population but their parents as well.

Since I'm an SLP and mother to a 35 year old daughter with autism, I related to much of the material. I liked the explanations of ToM and Social Skills concepts. I didn't know about CCT.  I can always learn something to help my daughter. Thanks. Best CEU I've done so far.

Nice & easily studied. I appreciate the information on tantrums & the reasons behind them, as well as solutions for dealing with them to help the child’s frustration decrease.

Very good class; fits with observations during my many years of expereince.

This is a great resource with an immense amount of information for staff at school and for parents at home.

Great information that I can apply to students on my caseload.

Another insightful and practical course offered by PDR! Thank you!

So much information!! Such a great class!

The course was informative. I appreciated the specific interventions to use with children with HFA.

I plan to use this in my next staff training. Thanks!

One of the best courses I’ve taken on this diagnosis.

Very thorough and helpful material. I appreciate how the information was organized and the variety of interventions and strategies when working with HFA.

This was a well organized and thorough course to refresh and to update my practice. I would recommend this to others for a good overview, and I am likely to refer back to this course material.

Outstanding training with very useful information for my practice. Thank you.

Great course. The author presented complete, relevant, and current information about HFA. It was easy to read.

Course material presented clearly with many examples.

Very well organized. I appreciated the references and direct links for more information.

This is an amazing training. I am a therapist at an elementary school and I often have to work with students in conjunction with teachers and parents due to "acting out" behavior in the classroom. Sometimes it is difficult to help general education teachers and administrators understand the accommodations and services needed for students with high functioning Autism. This is even more challenging when the student is not yet identified or has a private evaluation/diagnosis from outside of the school system. I am going to use some of the these materials to educate my school team and develop some targeted interventions in conjunction with our SLP's. Thank you so much for giving me some of the language to explain the behaviors of our students with ASD and some starting points for working on interventions with our team.This has truly been one of the best trainings I have taken online!

The material is laid out in a very clear and logical manner. As always, no matter how much I think I know about topic, your courses always teach me something new.

Excellent course. Lots of ideas for therapists to use. It was easy to naviagate course.

This significantly added to my prior knowledge about HFA. It was beautifully presented and very interesting! Truly beneficial for every one.

Thank you for providing this course. I believe it is an important topic.

This was a clearly-written, well-organized, and particularly helpful and practical course-- and it was a pleasure to take it!!!
