ACE Event – February 28th 2023
To celebrate ASK’s recent accreditation as an ACE Provider, we will be hosting a free online CEU Event on February 28th 2023, from 18h30-19h30 CET.
Dr. Lorna Barry, Ph.D., BCBA, will be presenting the latest literature and findings on “Evidence-Based Practices: Considerations for Behaviour Analysts”. Dr. Barry is a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst who recently completed her Ph.D. in the area of autism, evidence-based practices (EBPs) and the research-to-practice gap in autism education.
This presentation will help practitioners to understand how EBPs are conceptualised, and the considerations that may need to be taken when recommending EBPs in non-clinical settings. This event will be of interest to practitioners working in school and community settings, but also those interested in the scientific underpinnings of the practices commonly recommended by behaviour analysts.
To attend this event, you must register your interest here.
