How does the GAIN Calibration Series work?
Watch : Do : Share - Discuss & Didactic
The GAIN series provides reviews of the individual ADOS-2 Modules on a 3-month schedule (January to March, April to June, July to September, and October to December). Each module is given an intensive review by sharing two videos of the module being administered to individuals, opportunities to score the administration by attendees (Watch : Do : Share), followed by discussions of the administration, scoring and relevant research (Discuss & Didactic).
On the first month of the series, attendees are given access to a video of the administration of an ADOS-2 module early in the month, and the opportunity to submit their own scores for the administration, as well as written comments and questions. At the end of the first month, attendees participate in an hour-and-a-half webinar discussing the video. The second month of the series is the same as the first month. The final month of the series is a webinar with additional discussion about ADOS administration and coding, and sharing relevant clinical research.
Live and Archived Modules
GAIN Series modules are available as both Live online and as archived sessions.
By archiving past sessions, GAIN is able to share access to ADOS-2 administrations and trainings on demand and on the modules specific to the interest of attendees.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the administration and intent/purpose of the tasks in the ADOS-2 Module.
- Describe the meaning of the specific codes on the ADOS-2 Module discussed in the webinar.
- Calculate all scoring for the ADOS-2, with a focus on the designated Module for each series.
