Objective: This investigation was to determine if parents with limited knowledge and skills of engagement with children with autism spectrum disorder would increase the frequency of their use of strategies as a result of receiving parent coaching through telepractice in an asynchronous format. Method: An A-B-A maintenance design was selected for this investigation and four participants were recruited. Following baseline data, participants received coaching in using three enhanced milieu teaching (EMT) strategies including matched turns, time delays, and target talk through a telepractice model. Criterion was established as 80% accuracy of use of the targeted strategy across two consecutive sessions. Results: Visual analysis revealed positive therapeutic changes for all participants. The percent of non-overlapping data between adjacent phases was 100% with all data points falling outside of the range of the baseline phase. Data also revealed continued use of the strategy after the intervention phase. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that parents with children with autism spectrum disorder can be coached via an asynchronous, telepractice model to utilize EMT strategies in the home.
