The role of the Behaviour Intervention (BI) is to assist families in the implementation of Behaviour Intervention programs for children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The goal of this course is to provide an introduction to the key concepts and skills related to the effective implementation of intensive Behaviour Intervention. There are many different approaches to Behaviour Intervention and this course will focus on a range of empirically supported approaches.
