If I attend the course, what do I need to do before attending?
If you work in a service that uses the ADOS-G or ADOS-2, try to sit in on ADOS assessments to observe the administration and attend any coding discussions. Familiarise yourself with the ADOS kit and the various toys and materials relevant to each module. If you have access to a manual, read it through.
How long is the course
The course lasts for 4 full days (5 for courses including the Toddler Module ).
Example timetable:
Day One 10:00 - 17:00
Day Two 09:30 - 17:00
Day Three 09:30 - 17:00
Day Four 09:30 - 17:00
What do I need to do after the course? What about reliability?
If you want to undergo assessment of reliability, you need to let us know by email. The Reliability Component for the course costs £150.00 + VAT per person. More details
I am not a medical doctor or a clinical psychologist - can I administer the ADOS-2?
Yes. Although a doctor or psychologist is usually responsible for giving the official diagnosis in clinical practice, any professional working as part of a multi-disciplinary diagnostic team can administer the ADOS-2. Researchers from a range of backgrounds may also be trained to administer the ADOS-2
Where can I buy ADOS2 kit/schedules/manual? We recommend Hogrefe
Is the ADOS2 kit the same as the ADOS one? Do I need to buy a new kit?
Modules 1, 2, 3 and 4 are identical in ADOS and ADOS2 kits. The only difference is the addition of materials for the Toddler Module in the ADOS2 kit. These materials can be purchased separately, so that people can 'upgrade' their kit to ADOS2, if required, without having to buy a whole new kit.
Is the manual included in the price of the course?
No. If your team does not have an ADOS2 Manual then you can purchase one before or after the course. The ADOS2 kit comes with an updated manual.
What if a course is unable to run?
We will offer you a choice of a) a complete refund b) transferring to a later course c) completing a virtual course via Zoom.

It was exciting to participate in ADOS-II training in Manchester! Thanks to Chris it was organized excellently and all the three trainers were great experts but open for discussion and exchange.” Mateusz Płatos, Zakład Psychologii Rehabilitacyjnej, Wydział Psychologii, Uniwersytet Warszawski
