Webcasts from the National Autism Conference August 2-6, 2010; Online CEs, including BACB, available.

The annual Penn State National Autism Conference is one of the great ones - because of the number of presentations, the stellar lineup of some of the best in autism intervention, and that they go to great lengths to generously make the content available to families and practitioners by webcasts, archiving of some presentations and some sales of video.

This year is no exception, with online webcasts being made available during the conference August 2-6, 2010. Mark your calendar, so that you don't miss this opportunity!


Note: This listing highlights those online webcasts which offer Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) CEs, but the full program also has opportunities for ASHA and Psych CEUs.
**For those not seeking CEs, the webcasts are FREE OF CHARGE.**

For those interested in attending the conference in person, please see the Conference Homepage.
