Our Neurodiversity course looks at the Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and associated conditions. Driver and rider trainers should expect to meet a signifi cant number of individuals affected by autism and associated conditions who wish to learn how to drive or ride.

Whether you have been approached by an individual who has had a diagnosis, or it becomes apparent during the course of learning that your student has a hidden disability, it is important to recognise when someone needs additional support through their learning.

Upskill and diversify your knowledge and skills to adapt and deliver training for each of your customers, in a client centred way.
