TPBA2 is a comprehensive assessment system, including family involvement materials, vision and hearing screening, a format to bridge assessment and intervention and procedures for monitoring outcomes. In this presentation participants will learn how to use the TPBA2 protocols, how to be part of a transdisciplinary team, observe children in playful interactions with parents, adults and peers, determine developmental levels and needs and make a functional intervention plan. Participants will practice using the materials by observing videos of actual assessments.
