AEPS-3 Training

In-depth guidance on the linked assessment and intervention system

Attend a two-day virtual AEPS®-3 Training and learn how to use the third edition of the trusted Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS®). Delivered via Zoom, this training prepares you to use the AEPS-3 linked system to assess, set goals, plan teaching and intervention, monitor young children’s progress, and support participation and involvement with families.

You’ll receive engaging live instruction from an AEPS expert, participate in breakout sessions with other attendees, and enhance your knowledge with practice forms and case studies.

Who should attend?

This training is appropriate for a wide range of professionals working with young children (early interventionists, early childhood educators, home visitors, program administrators, therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists). Whether you’re familiar with the earlier edition of AEPS or are new to AEPS-3, you’ll learn how to make the most of the system.

Please Note:

If you have more than 12 people attending from the same organization, it’s more cost effective to schedule a private AEPS training for your group.

What you'll learn

Attend this comprehensive training to learn about:

  • Fundamentals of AEPS-3, including the system’s organization and the 8 developmental areas
  • Best practices for test administration, including authentic assessment, virtual assessment, and group assessment
  • Scoring of the assessment, including qualified scoring options new to the third edition
  • Use of AEPS-3 for eligibility determination
  • Development of IFSP and IEP goals using AEPS-3 data
  • How to link AEPS-3 data with teaching and intervention using the multi-tiered, activity-based curriculum
  • The new Ready-Set measure for measuring school readiness
  • Strategies for partnering with families throughout the assessment and intervention process

You’ll get a certificate of completion via email once you’ve completed the training! (Please note that participants need to attend all days at the designated times to successfully complete this virtual training.)
