Learn More About Autism Spectrum Disorder – Learning & Education
Providing training workshops, courses, information sessions and other training opportunities is one of the most important activities that we carry out. We are committed to providing accurate, helpful, cost-effective training opportunities to suit all needs.
Early Days Workshops for those with children aged 0-6
These are information sessions for parents and carers. We provide an Introductory Workshop and a number of skills workshops for parents and carers in the “early days” of their journey through assessment and diagnosis.
Family Information Sessions
We run information sessions specifically for families, once a month throughout the year at our office in Carlton. These sessions are based on specific topics that are of interest to our members, such as mental health and ASDs, or Anxiety and ASDs.
Family Information Sessions are free for our members and non-members are able to attend for a small fee.
Autism Education Sessions
Our Training & Information Team is made up of experienced autism professionals who are able to provide autism education sessions to suit your requirements: each session can be tailored to the needs of the specific group to ensure maximum benefit.
