Organisation Skills for High School and Beyond – 10-Week Course

Presented by Kathryn, Senior Speech Pathologist
This event has been cancelled. Stay tuned for a future date!

Organisation is an area that a lot of people find challenging in high school, as well as in the workplace. In the high school setting, people struggle to achieve their full potential academically, socially and in their extra curricular pursuits when they do not have a strong foundation of organisational skills. When a student does not have strong organisation, they will frequently experience varying degrees of stress and anxiety.

However, practical skills for breaking down tasks, time management, completing assignments, taking notes, studying for exams, learning content, staying focused, managing materials, avoiding overwhelm and the numerous other aspects of participating in the high school setting, are a simple way to reduce stress and anxiety experienced at school in relation to school work and academic achievements.

Such skills can be applied by students in their school setting, as well as in other areas of their life, to develop strong foundations when completing tasks that come their way.

This course is offered online via Zoom.

FABIC Poster Collection Discussion Groups – Session 19 – Common Challenges ASD

Presented by Tanya R Curtis, Senior Behaviour Specialist
Location: Online (Worldwide)

Thursday 15 August 2024 – 6:00pm – 6:50pm AEST (QLD Time)

Poster 31: Common challenges for a person with an Autism Spectrum Disorder
Poster 32: Autism Spectrum Disorder – Life lessons

Tanya Curtis is well-known and highly regarded for her work with autism, and she will always maintain that a person is not their behaviour and that skills must not be expected but need to be taught.

These two posters detail the common challenges and life lessons for a person with an ASD, and while they do not apply to everybody on the spectrum, they provide more opportunities to learn new skills and gain self-mastery over what was might once have been perceived as difficult or even impossible.
