Neurodiversity in the Workplace

Overview 

This course will take participants on a step-by-step journey through what it means to be neurodiverse and how this can impact communication, social interaction, imagination and behaviour. By understanding what it means to the individual, the course then takes participants through strategies and techniques that are invaluable in working with and supporting others.
