Title: Teaching Vocational Skills

This workshop will address specific job traits employers find valuable, social skills needed for employee integration, empirically-validated teaching techniques for vocational skills, and a suggested timeline for teaching them. Information will address learners across the range of support needs.

Title: Effects of Response Interruption and Redirection Procedures on Stereotypy
Description: Response Interruption and Redirection (RIRD) has been found to be an effective treatment to reduce stereotypy in children with autism. In an RIRD procedure, the therapist interrupts a target behavior by delivering a demand that redirects the learner to an appropriate response. RIRD procedures have resulted in decreased rates of stereotypy and increased rates of appropriate behaviors. This workshop will review current literature on RIRD procedures to identify evidence based treatment protocols that BCBAs can use when creating behavior intervention plans for clients.
