Autism Clinical Interview for Adults (ACIA) training

Course Information

ACIA training is a two hour course enabling delegates to be trained to use the Autism Clinical Interview for Adults (ACIA) - a diagnostic assessment to be used in the assessment of people age 16 years and over with possible autism. The ACIA can be used in clinical services or research.

Delegates will receive training in ACIA use and administration. Following training, PDF copies of the ACIA documents will be provided to delegates free of charge (including the ACIA Manual, Pre-interview Questionnaires, and the ACIA Subject and Informant versions of the main Interview).

We will make the ACIA Materials available under sublicense from Newcastle University; following training we do not charge for ACIA use. The PDF and the paper copies provided should be used to create colour printed versions or colour photocopies of the ACIA materials for personal use in your diagnostic service. Your clinical service should pay for local printing/copying. Versions you print or copy should be exact copies - trained delegates are not permitted to edit or change the ACIA, or transfer them to others. The full list of Conditions of Use for the ACIA will be circulated to delegates prior to the course and discussed during training.

ACIA training has been kept low cost to maximise opportunities for uptake; funds from training are reinvested in further ACIA development.

Please note that we cannot accept payment via invoice for the training sessions, payment must be made by credit or debit card.
