Welcome to Autism Learns. Brought to you by the organisers of The Autism & ADHD Show, we provide trusted and affordable online learning to parents, family carers and professionals who support autistic children and young adults.
In this new online learning series, our team of leading autism specialists will be taking a fresh look at distressed behaviour in autistic children and young people. Often misunderstood, behaviour which is labelled as “challenging” is frequently a communication of unmet needs, sensory overload, anxiety, or distress.
Over two days we'll explore evidence-based and neurodiversity-affirming approaches to understanding and reducing distressed behaviour. Bringing together expert practitioners, neurodivergent educators, therapists and lived experience voices, these webinars are packed with practical strategies to help parents, family carers, educators and other professionals provide support that works.
You’ll gain insight into what’s really driving behaviour - and walk away with a toolkit of realistic and effective ideas to help reduce distress, build trust and support emotional wellbeing in a home and school setting.
Learnings include:
- Understanding behaviour as communication, not disruption
- Practical strategies for de-escalation and emotional regulation
- Recognising sensory triggers and making suitable adaptations
- Understanding Emotionally-Based School Avoidance (EBSA)
- How to respond to self-injury and inappropriate behaviours
- How to support better sleep and mental health
Book the series now for just £54.99 for parents and family carers, and £84.99 for professionals. Content is CPD certified for professionals. Price includes 30 day access to recordings of all webinars in the two day series.
