What will I learn?
You will build a solid understanding of autism spectrum disorder, including how it presents differently across individuals and what that means for your daily support role. You will learn how to adapt communication, use visual supports, and implement structured teaching methods that promote independence. The course covers sensory processing, positive behaviour strategies, social skills facilitation, and collaboration with families and specialist teams. You will also develop reflective practice habits that help you keep improving your skills over time.
