The latest Australian Census data indicates, that 1 in 150 people or 164,000 people are living with autism. Young people (5-20 years) with autism need a high level of support to participate in their education. Educators can play a critical role in autistic learners’ success in school and beyond. As a result, there is an ongoing need for professionals to have a nuanced understanding of autism to ensure they can support this group of students to thrive within education contexts.
Completing a Graduate Certificate in Autism will help you build a nuanced understanding of autism, delve into the latest research and best practices in the field of autism education, gain insight into the neurodiversity of individuals with autism, and develop strategies to create inclusive learning environments that promote their social, emotional, and academic growth.
With a broad, evidence-based skill set, will give you the understanding and skills to tailor flexible, individualised educational programs and practices to support meaningful inclusion and positive learning outcomes for autistic students across a range of diverse educational contexts.
