First semester I will be taking five courses including:
- Autism - Introduction to Applied Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Introduction to Applied Behavioural Analysis
- Parent and Staff Training
- Working With Families and Teams
- Ethics and Professionalism
In January I will do a placement for four weeks. There are a few different types of placements which you can have, including ASD Agencies, IBI settings, School Placements and School Support programs.

I am hoping to be in a school setting and I know a few autism classes in the area. I will be exploring my options. There are two placements so I am hoping to have a range of experiences. We have to set up our own placements which is one of the unique challenges for a Distance Ed program.
It is a standard program, so course and expectations are the same at all the schools the program is offered in. I considered going to Mohawk and they seemed to be really great about answering questions, so it is worth looking into if anyone is interested in the program and located in the Hamilton area. Ontario Colleges would have a list of all schools that offer it.
