Our Autism Awareness & Neurodiversity Workshop is co-designed and delivered by a facilitator with lived experience. Content is evidence-based, and we use a neuro-affirming, strengths based approach. This workshop aims to reframe perception and improve understanding of autism and neurodiversity by discussing the main areas of difference, and providing awareness of how neurodivergent individuals may experience the workplace. Participants will also explore the concepts of inclusion and accommodation by identifying and removing potential barriers in the workplace. Participants will also gain insight and knowledge that can be applied to their daily work routines, equipping them with the skills necessary to foster an inclusive and productive workplace for everyone.
