About the Workshop
This 30 hour POPARD course (formerly Educating Schoolage Children with Autism - The Para-Pro Approach) is an excellent practical introduction to working with school-age children with ASD. Marianne has presented this course several times for ACT and continues to receive an outstanding response from participants.
This course is a requirement for teaching assistants in many school districts and is open to community professionals and parents.
