Business Training Services
As the prevalence of Autism diagnoses continues to rise, so does the need to ensure that staff and workers are appropriately trained and understand what Autism is and how to interact with an Autistic individual. With the rate of 1 in 36 children now being diagnosed on the Spectrum, it is becoming increasingly more likely that you know someone with autism or someone that has a family member on the spectrum. It is probable that your team or employees will be interacting with people on the Autism Spectrum. It is prudent that your team members have basic level knowledge and understanding about Autism and the symptoms of an individual that may be on the spectrum. Beyond understanding the basics of Autism, it becomes increasingly more important that your team members learn strategies for engagement so that every Autistic individual is treated with dignity and respect while also protecting any unforeseen liability that could result from not interfacing in a manner that is safe, respectful, and professional at the same time.
