Autism Accreditation members only area
Welcome to the members only area for our accreditation awards. Autism Accreditation began in 1992 with the overall aim to improve autism practice across social care, health and education. Since then, we have worked with over 1,000 different service providers and at present our work is impacting on over 35,000 autistic people’s lives.
We offer three types of accreditation award:
Autism Specialist Award
Tailored to meet the needs of specialist providers in the fields of education, social care, and prisons.
Autism Inclusion Award
For mainstream providers in education, general health, community activities, and the Criminal Justice System.
Autism Friendly Award
Supporting customer-facing organisations of all sizes to provide an autism-friendly environment and inclusive customer service.
