Autism Navigator Menu of Professional Development Trainings
Autism Navigator offers a menu of Professional Development (PD) training opportunities, all using virtual technology.
Are you ready to join us and be a catalyst for meaningful change? Providers often find deeper fulfillment when they can empower families to engage their child. As early interventionists, we know the magic happens in everyday moments. Our PD training is designed to help you coach families in activities they are already doing everyday — building their confidence to support their child’s social communication development, which sets into motion learning to talk, and lifelong learning. Join our supportive community of learners who care as much as you do. Let’s make a lasting impact — one meaningful activity at a time.
You can schedule a free 30-minute Planning Meeting with our team to help you learn more about our group PD training opportunities for your agency or region and where to start. Email us at [email protected] to schedule a Planning Meeting.

PD Tiers for Early Intervention Providers
Autism Navigator uses an implementation science framework to promote coordinated change at practice, program, organization, and system levels to support community uptake and sustained utilization. We have developed five tiers of PD certification for early intervention providers designed to support training for effective implementation of parent coaching using Autism Navigator courses, masterclasses, and guided supervision by Master Coaches. Our PD Tiers begin with Tier 1 for providers to learn the Knowledge and Skills of effective implementation. In Tier 2 providers advance to the Mastery Application level to become a reliable rater of implementation fidelity and engage families and community partners in parent-implemented intervention. In Tier 3 providers receive specialized Autism Navigator training to be certified at the implementation fidelity level with four families. Tier 4 is training to be certified to coach and mentor other providers in your region and Tier 5 is training to be certified as a Master Coach and Global Training.
