Autism Professionals Conference 2020

Understanding stress and anxiety in autism

This course explores helping autistic children and adults to reduce stress and anxiety, understanding behaviour and supporting them during difficult times.

About the training

Stress and anxiety affect many autistic children and adults, causing significant distress that may be expressed in ways that challenge the person and others who struggle to understand them.This course is designed for anyone who works with autistic children or adults and already has an understanding of autism.

We recommend this course to all practitioners because anxiety and stress are such a difficulty for many autistic people. We must understand why this is if we are to provide support that works and makes a lasting difference.

Our interactive virtual training delivery model ensures we are proud to deliver the exact same learning outcomes for you as our face to face training course, in a learner friendly and accessible way. 

Our interactive training options provide delegates with access to our courses in a learner friendly and accessible way. Your training will be delivered by one of our experienced and knowledgeable training consultants, using a combination of PowerPoint presentation, videos and discussion to support learning. We schedule regular breaks into all our sessions. 

Our live online courses are delivered using Microsoft Teams. Delegates will be sent joining links and handouts prior to the course. We have approximately 15 delegates on each group, and we try to be sensitive to individual adjustments that people may need, including cameras being optional and using the chat box for interactions. 

Our face-to-face courses are delivered at a venue of your choosing. Handouts will be provided at the beginning of the course. We have approximately 25 delegates on each group.

 

Training times

Our live online course is run across two days. The open access training runs from 9.30am -1pm across both days with regular breaks. If you are booking an in-house course, we can liaise with you to offer a range of times that would suit your setting.  

Our face-to-face course is run in one day, from 9.30 to 16.00, including breaks and lunchtime.
