To present interdisciplinary teams (IDTs) as foundational to effective assessment for students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This conceptual paper encourages IDTs by (a) presenting practice guidelines and research supporting effective IDTs; (b) describing vital team characteristics; (c) introducing a new model of teaming practices with a clinical case example; and (d) discussing IDT implementation barriers and recommendations specific to professionals supporting students with ASD. IDT members (e.g., school psychologists, teachers, behavior analysts, occupational therapists, speech‐language pathologists) should use assessment results to navigate goal‐setting and intervention planning allowing students with ASD to benefit from several therapeutic and educational approaches. Skilled professionals support a student's educational trajectory, increasing the likelihood of meeting developmental and academic milestones, and, ultimately leading to better life opportunities
