BeginningWithA Reviews

I think the only thing that was 'missing' as it was an online course was the opportunity to practice administering the ADOS. I imagine had it been in person delegates would have been in pairs or groups to take it in turn to actually administer the ADOS. The only other comment is that at the beginning of Day 1 the trainers asked people to keep their cameras on, but some people never put theirs on, and as the course progressed more people had them off. I mostly kept mine on, and only turned it off if I needed to concentrate. But I then felt a bit 'exposed' as was aware that people could see me and I could not see them. I was tempted to keep mine off due to this and wonder if more people turned theirs off as the course progressed as others had? So, it might have been beneficial for the trainers to remind people of the etiquette of keeping their cameras on both for the benefit of the trainers to see people, and for the delegates.

I'm very pleased to have taken this course, I enjoyed it, and I expect it will be very helpful in my future work. Many thanks.

The course felt well organised and well laid out. I thought the facilitator was engaging and highly skilled at managing the zoom format.

Very helpful course in terms of getting a taster for ADOS and ADI administration. However, it feels like this is the beginning of a process of learning, with further practice and supervision needed.

Excellent run course, excellent teacher and the IT support / systems were excellent in terms of easy to use and very responsive.

Informative and experiential workshop to help build confidence in using these measures

Dr. Carol is very experienced and always gives genuine share about her feedback on her real practice. Clear schedule and class arrangement. Good use of the online platform as well.

Huge amount of information - a very comprehensive training course Well organised and clearly guided through the materials by Garry

It was a very useful experience enriching my diagnostic skills on autistic children. Both trainers were very helpful and the sessions were vivid and interactive, besides the need of virtual course.

It was a very well organised education on both ADOS-2 and ADI-R. both of the tests will be very realible and valid due to clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis. The only thing that worries me is the grant in Greek children and adults the first few times.
