The research focuses on the correlation between years of experience and confidence levels, examining knowledge, support, and perceived effectiveness in caring for individuals with ASD. Data collection involved surveys and interviews, with subsequent data entry into Excel and REDCap. Statistical analysis and visualizations were conducted using Power BI and Python. Key findings indicate a significant positive correlation between healthcare providers' total years of experience and their confidence in ASD care. These insights aim to inform the development of targeted training programs, enhancing provider readiness and improving care outcomes for individuals with ASD. The practicum provided hands-on experience with real-world data, fostering technical and analytical skills, and bridging the gap between academic knowledge and practical application.en-USAutism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)Healthcare ProvidersSurvey of Autism Awareness and Practice (SAAP)ASD Care StrategiesClinical ExperienceEvidence-Based PracticesASD Care StrategiesPoster
