Event description

Developing Social Competencies by developing social attention, interpretation and problem solving:

Professional Development In Focus Workshop

Attention, interpretation, problem solving and responding are all skills required when interacting with others. For some individuals on the spectrum, this process can be challenging and stressful. This interactive workshop will provide attendees with information on how autism can impact social interaction and will guide participants through a range of practical strategies to support the development of social competencies that can be transferred in to social settings.

Topics covered include:

  • What is social interaction;
  • The impact of autism;
  • Reading context;
  • Theory of Mind;
  • Developing play skills;
  • Modelling and video modelling;
  • Social Narratives;
  • Comic Strip Conversations; and
  • Cognitive Behaviour approaches including Social Behaviour Mapping and The Incredible 5-Point Scale.

All participants will receive a certificate with the workshop title, the number of hours and will state that the training links to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (where appropriate).

Workshop Definitions:

General Workshops are designed to give participants a better understanding of autism.  They present a broad range of effective strategies that participants can use to improve their practice when working with individuals on the spectrum. These workshops are suited to participants who have not attended previous Autism SA workshops.

In Focus Workshops are designed for participants who have a good general knowledge and understanding of autism. These sessions are for those wanting to enhance their professional practice by developing skills to support individuals in specific areas relating to autism. It is recommended that participants first attend a General Workshop prior to attending an In Focus Workshop.

Autism SA has a highly experienced and diverse training team which includes consultants, occupational therapists, speech pathologists and facilitators who have extensive experience in working with individuals on the autism spectrum in a range of settings.
