Bayley-4 Scales of Infant and Toddler Development Fourth Edition 14th - 15th March 2024

Overview

This is an intensive two-day workshop on the new Bayley 4, which assesses developmental functioning for infants and young children aged from 1 month to 42 months. The training is interactive and will introduce course participants to the newly released Bayley 4 and includes both video case studies and live demonstrations with a young child. Participants will learn how to administer and score the Cognitive, Language and Motor scales as well as the Social Emotional Scale and totally revised Adaptive Behaviour Scale. However additional practice in administering the test items will be required after the training in order for examiners to become fully competent Bayley testers.
