This training will introduce the concept of developmental screening using the evidence-based tool Ages and Stages Questionnaire: Social-Emotional, 2nd edition (ASQ:SE-2). Participants will learn about the benefits of developmental screening, the features of the ASQ:SE-2, scoring and interpreting screening results, communicating with families, and follow-up and next steps.

In this engaging lecture-format webinar we will:
1. Explain the benefits and purpose of social-emotional screening for children ages 0–5 by articulating its impact on early intervention and child development
2. Identify and describe the key components and structure of the ASQ:SE-2, including its domains, scoring system, and administration process
3. Accurately score and interpret screening results, using provided guidelines, to determine developmental progress and areas of concern
4. Apply effective communication strategies to engage families in the screening process, including discussing results and addressing concerns with sensitivity and clarity
