Autism Courses
Caring Alliances offers autism courses for care workers. These courses aim to equip participants with essential knowledge and strategies for supporting individuals with autism.
The courses explore the nature of autism, including its impacts on communication, social interactions, and behaviour. Participants will acquire knowledge and skills regarding potential interventions they can apply to meet individual needs, enabling them to treat each person in their care with dignity and respect. For example, understanding sensory sensitivities can significantly improve the experience of an autistic individual by helping to reduce anxiety.
Our autism courses are tutor-supported, allowing students to access tutorials and receive feedback. All our courses enable you to gain RQF credits that can be used to further your studies in health and social care.
