About this event
Course Overview
Neurodiversity refers to the natural variations in the human brain and encourages us to consider the strengths of people who think, feel, and experience the world differently. In this course delegates will explore how neuroinclusive practice can reduce stigma and promote acceptance of this often-overlooked form of human diversity.
Please note this session does not cover a discussion of the various neurodivergent conditions.
At the end of this webinar delegates will have an improved understanding of:
- What neurodiversity means
- Common terminology
- Disability, difference, and neurodiversity
- The strengths that come from thinking differently
- Why neuroinclusive practice matters and where to start
