ABOUT AEPS‐3

Streamlined and enhanced with user‐requested updates, the new AEPS‐3 gives your early childhood program the most accurate, useful child data and a proven way to turn data into action across everything you do, from goal setting to teaching to progress monitoring. Use this highly effective and efficient linked system to assess, develop goals, implement instruction/intervention, and monitor progress of every child you work with, from the first months of life through kindergarten.

AEPS‐3 HELPS YOU:

  • Collect essential assessment data and use it across your key tasks: OSEP reporting, determining eligibility, building IFSPs and IEPs, planning teaching and intervention, monitoring progress, and sharing results with families
  • Track and support emerging skills, where real growth and development happens
  • Link assessment data to a tiered curriculum for designing teaching and intervention strategies that get results
  • Pick up small increments of progress—important when demonstrating growth for children with disabilities
  • Actively involve families, with handouts to support communication and family engagement, forms to collect information about child skills, and reports to share results and progress
  • Strengthen school readiness for every young child by checking and supporting core skills across all areas of child development, including pre‐academic and social‐emotional skills

There's never been a more effective or efficient system for assessing, tracking, and nurturing the development of every child you work with, from the first months of life through kindergarten. Learn more about AEPS‐3.

Ilene Schwartz, University of Washington - November 1, 2021
“There is so much to like about AEPS-3. As a professional working with children with ASD, I appreciate the expanded number of assessment and curriculum items on the low and high ends of age bands. When working with children with ASD who may have significant deficits in some areas and real strengths in others, it is often difficult to find developmentally appropriate assessments and curricula that meet their needs. I look forward to using this tool with our learners and their families.”
Evelyn Harocopos, Early Childhood Class-Based Teacher, Fairfax County Public Schools - November 1, 2021
“I never thought I’d say I was excited to administer an assessment on my students, but after looking at the new AEPS-3, that’s exactly what I’m feeling! This new edition has so many great features, where to even begin? I absolutely love that it’s now one continuous assessment system from birth to six. So many of my students had skills that crossed over both levels, forcing me to toggle between the two assessments. This allows me to see the child holistically, where some skills may be at an earlier developmental level and other skills closer to typically developing.”
A variety of training options are planned to help you make the most of AEPS‐3.

Presented by AEPS experts and hosted by Brookes on Location, our live virtual trainings will help you ensure that staff members know AEPS‐3 inside and out. Learn about booking a seminar for your organization. Attend an AEPS‐3 Training.

Programs can ensure that users are scoring AEPS‐3 correctly and consistently with online AEPS‐3 Interrater Reliability Certification. This field‐tested module provides a 3‐year certification upon successful completion.
