M3 HANDS-ON COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT IN AYRES SENSORY INTEGRATION
This module provides hands on practice and review of all aspects of sensory integration and praxis with a variety of assessments that were introduced in Module 2. During the onsite Module 3, participants will have an opportunity to clarify any questions they have about the information presented in the online instruction, practice assessment administration and scoring with peers and, when possible, practice the assessments with children brought into the course.

REQUIRED MATERIALS
To receive the final certificate, learners must document the completion of a comprehensive assessment of sensory integration with at least two typically developing children and one child who has been identified as having concerns. Due to the accessibility of the EASI in terms of cost, age range, and international applicability, the main assignments of the program will be geared toward these newly developed tests. A checklist of items needed for learning, practicing, administering, and scoring the EASI will be provided in the resources section of CLASI's assessment Modules (Modules 2 & 3). The estimated total cost for the EASI items is $200-$300.
Participants in the CLASI CASI who have access to SIPT materials and who wish to test children on the SIPT as part of the case requirements may do so. Therapists will be guided through the interpretation process with the tests they apply and through cases provided in the modules.
CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS
Module 3 provides 30 hours of training and offers 3.0 CEUs. CLASI is an approved provider of continuing education units (CEU) by the American Occupational Therapy Association.
