    Treating Movement Challenges in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: NDT for ASD is a regularly-delivered series available for ongoing enrolment. Upon registration here, participants receive immediate access to the pre-recorded learning modules, handouts and resources. Access to this content expires in one year from the date that you purchase your registration.

    In addition to the immediately available pre-recorded content, this course includes one complimentary live on Zoom 60-minute Q&A session with Kim & the Relationship Matters Team. The event calendar date currently displayed reflects the date of the next upcoming Q&A session. You will be automatically assigned the next upcoming Q&A date for your complimentary session, based on the date of your registration.

    These Q&A sessions are scheduled to take place approximately every 6-8 months, with the recording of this session available for an additional year upon the date that it is made available. Course certificates are available upon request in the form provided in the course after the live Q&A session has taken place – live participation or viewing of the Q&A recording is required for your certificate (if this is an issue for you due to funding or other deadlines, please contact us here to discuss options). Registrants are encouraged to submit questions in advance and ask them live. Even if registrants are unable to make the Q&A date and time, they will still be able to see the Q&A’s recording. Upon completion of the pre-recorded lessons as well as their complimentary Q&A, registrants then meet the prerequisite of attending any future Q&A for a small fee ($30 CDN) should they wish to further engage with Kim & the team or have new questions on this topic.

    As always, financial support and group discounts are available. Please find links to apply for these below.

    • ABOUT THIS COURSE

    8 PRE-RECORDED Video Lessons + One Live 60 Minute Q&A on July 25, 2024 @ 4:00 pm Pacific

    Movement challenges are the functional limitations most often neglected in the treatment of children with ASD. Current motor control literature and neurobiological research highlight the motor systems impairments in the increasing prevalence of the ASD diagnosis. Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT) is a frame of reference that guides clinicians in the analysis and treatment of posture and movement. This cutting-edge workshop will apply NDT principals, assessment, and intervention in treating the movement challenges of children on the spectrum. Comparing and contrasting between ASD compensatory motor patterns and typical motor development will be emphasized, offering a foundation for the facilitation of new motor learning through lecture, videotape analysis and virtual lab. This pre-recorded on-demand learning experience will be available for viewing for 365 days.

    Course Objectives

    • Understand neurobiological and motor control research foundations of the movement impairments in ASD

    • Describe Neuro-Developmental Treatment foundations of assessment and intervention for individuals with ASD

    • Appreciate the comparison of components of movements observed in typical development and movements observed in children on the spectrum

    • Acquire introductory handling skills and play schemes to enhance the unique motor learning and functional impairments for children on the spectrum

    Enrolment Duration

    Participants will have repeated access via live streaming for 365 days from the date they register. Additionally, there will be a live, online and interactive Q&A for 60 minutes held on February 1 at 6 pm Pacific Time.
