About the course
Our highly successful accredited training course, Supporting Autistic Children and Young People's Communication, is available through blended web-based learning. Uniquely, this has an interactive component of which we are very proud.
The course programme involves:
- Online modules which are completed through self-study at a time that suits you but should be completed before the live webinar
- Live webinars which are an hour long and are pre-arranged at specific times
Applicants must have completed an Elklan core course to be eligible to apply. (If you haven't completed a Elklan core course, please see the ten-session course Communication Support for Verbal Pupils with ASD.)
Learners compile a portfolio of evidence to demonstrate how their learning is applied in the work place. The course is accredited at Levels 2 and 3 through an externally, quality assured, and Ofqual-regulated National Awarding Organisation. Successful learners will receive nine credits at either Level 2 or 3.
