​By the end of the course, you will be able to: 

​

• Describe how different people’s brains work using key neurodiversity descriptors.

• Identify the most common types of neurodivergence.  

• Explain both the legal (UK) and moral responsibilities organisations have in accommodating neurodivergence.  

• Summarise the key characteristics and presentations of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).  

• Apply inclusive thinking and identify practical actions that can be taken to support autistic and ADHD colleagues in common workplace situations. 

​

Interactive Groupwork

It is encouraged to make these scenarios bespoke to the client, and depending on the group 

size 4-5 scenarios are needed per workshop. 

​

Examples of scenarios that could be used (but the options are endless): 
 ​​

• You are putting a training plan in place for an ADHD or Autistic employee, what considerations should you make.

• You are taking your team to an offsite location for a team building day- one of the team is Autistic or has ADHD what should you consider? 

• You are looking at your physical work environment, what accommodations might you need to make for an Autistic or ADHD colleague? 

• There is going to be an announcement about changes to team structure/policies/work environment/a persons job tasks (select one) what do you need to consider for the Autistic or ADHD colleague? 

• Your Autistic or ADHD employee is required to travel to visit customers and hold meetings/do presentations- how will you support them to do this?
