About this course
The aim of this course is to offer basic information and insights into autism causes and signs. We shall consider what the autism spectrum is and how living on the autism spectrum impacts on people’s lives; how autism is currently understood; and types and sources of support to improve wellbeing.
This is a short, introductory course for people with little or no knowledge of autism or the support available. It is very suitable for relatives of family members living with autism, especially if you are unfamiliar with support systems, seeking guidance on what autism is, what might cause it, and how to offer support; or for workers who do not specialise in autism, but come into contact through their work with people living with autism, who would like more knowledge and understanding of how to help. It is also suitable for people living with autism who would like to know more about it and how to access support.
Learners will require note-taking materials -either pen and notepad, voice recorder (learners are very welcome to record oral teaching as a reasonable adjustment but will be asked not to record personal disclosures)
Learners will be sent PowerPoint presentations and supplementary handouts.
As this course is online, a suitable device such as laptop, smart phone, tablet or computer will be required to access the course. Zoom will be used for the live sessions and the link will be sent to you once your enrolment has been completed.
