About this event
- Event lasts 2 hours
Join ABA Visualized and the creators of the MOTAS for an interactive training on the newest tool reshaping assessment in our field.
This 2-hour interactive training introduces the MOTAS (Meaningful Outcomes Through Assessment and Support)—a values-aligned, neurodiversity-affirming assessment created by and for behavior professionals. Learn how this flexible tool can help you identify priorities, collaborate with families, and design socially significant goals that truly reflect the needs of your learners.
We’ll walk through the MOTAS step by step, highlighting practical implementation tips and answering FAQs from real providers. Plus, hear directly from the creators about what inspired this assessment and how it’s already making a difference in clinical settings.
Whether you’re seeking a more flexible, collaborative assessment process, exploring new tools beyond VB-MAPP or ABLLS, or simply wanting to update your approach—this training offers practical guidance you can use right away.
Includes:
- 2 Learning CEUs
- A walkthrough of how to conduct the MOTAS
- Tips for integrating the MOTAS with insurance requirements
- Guidance and practice creating individualized goals
- A downloadable section of the MOTAS (Self-awareness domain)
