I work in the school-setting and have noticed that FASD is not discussed with service providers and it is important that we become more comfortable in addressing this issue so that we can support our clients that present with this syndrome.

I liked that the presenter used both research and personal anecdotes to provide information. The presenter offered many applicable, real life examples of behaviors that individuals with fetal alcohol syndrome may exhibit, and the proper ways to support them. I also enjoyed that the presenter compared fetal alcohol syndrome to other disorders such as autism, to give perspective to the listeners. Touching on the stigma associated with fetal alcohol disorder was also very helpful.

This was helpful for me because I currently have child that isn't officially diagnosed with this but is showing a lot of indications that this could be the case. This was helpful in how I can adapt my room and approach in therapy to best help them!

There were many person examples but not as much research included. Additionally, I felt confused about the insistence on FASD being different than other diagnosis but lack of differential diagnosis techniques. Especially considering that FASD and other diagnosis such as ASD or ADHD present similarly and benefit from similar supports/ techniques.

I love how the speaker touched on the slides, but really expanded and explained what was written. You can tell he is an expert in his field and is confident in his knowledge (and lack of - limited brain research) regarding FASD. I also appreciated how he discussed the misdiagnosis or undiagnosed and suspected students as this is often the case with the students I on my caseload.

This is a helpful course in considering fetal alcohol syndrome. The speaker lays out helpful differences between FASD and other disorders impacting behavior/executive function. He also shares helpful tips for managing behaviors and academic challenges at school and at home including changes to the environment and how to talk to the child with FASD.

After 20 years of practice and going to seminars and webinars, I have to say I am overall EXTREMELY impressed by this presenter. Aside from his knowledge base, the way he conveyed it and his organization, as well as making an exam that highlighted the most important and useful aspects, made this an incredible class. I didn't know much about FASD and now I feel so much more confident. I am also going to try using some of the strategies with other students as well.

There was no discussion about how to actually recognize FASD (facial characteristics, symptom list, ect, or differentially diagnose FAS from other disorders.
