MIDSA On Demand Training
The comprehensive training is divided into three sections. In the first section, the development of the MIDSA is discussed and a summary of research findings is provided. In the second section, the different sections of the MIDSA report are reviewed, with specific attention paid to the wealth of developmental and life history information collected by the MIDSA that is often absent in archival files. Interpretation of MIDSA scales is then discussed, with examples of their relevance to treatment planning. In the third section, a demonstration is provided of how to administer and obtain reports for the MIDSA.
More cost-effective and time-efficient than attending an in-person workshop but covering the same content, this innovative training is the first-of-its-kind.
