Join Free →The Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program is an assessment and a curriculum guide developed by Dr. Mark Sundberg. It is a widely used language and social skills assessment and program guide for children with autism and other developmental disabilities that compares the level of their language and other skills to neuro-typical peers 0-4 years of age. The VB-MAPP is an easy to use tool that can provide important information to develop meaningful IEP goals and programs. The goal of this workshop is to encourage clinicians to use the VB-MAPP assessment if it is an appropriate tool for their learners.
