Axcis Education Recruitment and The National Autistic Society (NAS) produced a series of six free 1-hour online webinars, covering key topics to help you develop your skill base and learning.
Education is a fundamental part of evey child's life but far too many children with autism are not getting the education they need. With the right support, every child has the opportunity to succeed. Parents and young people agree that knowledge of autism, more than anything else, helps children's needs to be met.
That's why Axcis Education Recruitment and the National Autistic Society developed this series of 1-hour webinars, so that teachers and other autism professionals can learn the tools and strategies they need to support children with autism effectively.
These online webinars are FREE to watch.
