About the workshop
The ACAR Clinic鈥檚 ECHO-Autism telementoring programme 鈥� the first of its kind in Quebec 鈥� aims to standardize best practices and increase knowledge about autism and related conditions among healthcare providers.
Using a hub-and-spoke knowledge-sharing approach, a panel of expert specialists (a.k.a. the 'Hub Team') lead virtual clinics catered to health professionals and trainees in local communities.
Each session includes a short didactic lecture on a specific topic, followed by a case study by an attendee and a group discussion.
