Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition that affects communication, behaviour, social interaction and sensory processing. Many children experience delayed recognition and limited access to early intervention services. For children and families, early identification and appropriate care may significantly improve developmental outcomes, functioning and quality of life.
This course provides relevant, accurate, up-to-date knowledge and practical skills, essential in recognising autism early, for supporting families and ensuring appropriate referral along the continuum of care.
