Thompson Center assessment specialists host annual two-day training

By Emily Morrison

COLUMBIA, MO (Feb. 6, 2017) — On Jan. 25-27, our Autism Assessment Specialists division trained 16 health providers and psychologists in the ADOS-2, the primary diagnostic assessment for autism.

Attendees joined the annual training from school districts, universities and service agencies across the state ranging from school psychologists, clinical psychologists, doctoral students and speech-language pathologists.

Led by Thompson Center Executive Director and independent ADOS trainer Dr. Stephen Kanne, researchers and clinicians with experience in autism attend these workshops to ensure their reliability on administering the ADOS-2 in their own practices.
