About this course

Autism is a term that describes an entire spectrum of developmental conditions that affect a person’s communication and perception of the world in a number of unique ways. Despite the fact that this condition has been researched widely across the world, what we know about it is constantly evolving, and the knowledge we have today differs significantly from what we thought we knew 20 years ago.

It’s important to note that autism is not an illness or a learning disability. You simply need to understand it as a different way of experiencing the world.

This course can help your staff gain a better understanding of autism and what adjustments can be made to the workplace to better accommodate those with autism.
