Awareness Training

Neurodiversity Awareness Training

Our Introduction to Neurodiversity session is a 60min presentation which aims to raise a general understanding of what neurodiversity is, covering Autistic Spectrum Conditions, Dyslexia and other “Dys” conditions and ADHD. It will also aim to explain what the benefits are of employing people with neurodiversity in the workplace and practical steps to minimise the difficulties these people may find in a modern work environment.

As the Introduction to Neurodiversity session is very brief, we also recommend more specific in-depth training for teams and managers working with people with specific types of Neurodiversity. Therefore, we offer the following:
