Statewide Training for SLPs with Lynn Adams, Ph.D. (IS FILLED)
Assess, Track and Treat: Authentic Assessment of Language
Sponsored by: VDOE and Region 5 T/TAC
Date: June 18, 2012
Location: Stonewall Jackson Hotel
                Staunton, VA
This workshop will provide the attendees with an authentic approach to assessment and treatment planning based on the work of Bloom and Lahey. Using normal development as its foundation, the CFU approach allows the user to assess and plan treatment using a “communication-referenced” measure; that measure being the child’s actual language production skills.  This approach is in keeping with the VDOE’s guidelines. Using the CFU method of sampling and language problems, the user can:
1.   Effectively determine the child’s present language level
2.   Develop meaningful language goals and objectives
3.   Easily and effectively track progress over time.
