The Brooklyn College advanced certificate program in Autism Spectrum Disorders was the first program in New York that has a cross-paradigm perspective to working with individuals on the spectrum. Students enrolled in the program learn about the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches that are available for individuals on the spectrum and learn with those from different fields and disciplines. Students with either bachelor's or master's degrees can apply to the 15-credit ASD certificate. The program can be completed in one year (with a fall, spring, and summer sequence), and can be applied towards continuing education credits and salary increments in the Department of Education. Classes are scheduled in the early evening for the convenience of working professionals. The coursework and practicum opportunities will reflect a range of approaches available for children on the autistic spectrum, including applied behavioral analysis, both discrete trials and natural learning paradigms, and developmental social-pragmatic approaches. Students will participate in lecture, discussion, observation, and practice, incorporating a range of philosophical, educational, and clinical paradigms. Students from varying disciplines, including education, speech-language pathology, school psychology, and occupational and physical therapy will have the opportunity to train and work collaboratively with future colleagues.
