Professional Short Course: Reframing Autistic Behaviour
Our Professional Short Course on Reframing Autistic Behaviour is a practical and rewarding course that explores common Autistic behaviours (including meltdowns, shutdowns and burnout) and their underlying root cause. It will increase your understanding of your Autistic clients as well as giving you the skills to increase their flourishing across the lifespan with respectful support that fosters resilience, autonomy, and authenticity.
Unlike other courses offered on Autism, Reframing Autism’s Professional Short Course on Reframing Autistic Behaviour is designed and run by Autistic individuals. It is not only information-rich, but actively centres Autistic experience as meaningful, and approaches Autism from a perspective of building broad and genuine wellbeing for every Autistic individual and the Autistic community.
During the Professional Short Course, you will have access both to academic research, as well as to Autistic lived expertise, which is considered as equally – if not more – valuable as peer-reviewed academic literature.
(Please note, this course was previously known as Professional Short Course: Emotions & Behaviour.)

“The course provided an insightful, neurodivergent-affirming approach that was both personally and professionally invaluable. It offered profound insights into the Autistic emotional landscape, from a foundation of empathy and connection.”

Autism Essentials + Professional Development Certificate
You asked and we delivered - it is now possible to get a professional development certificate for our hugely popular Autism Essentials course!
Autism Essentials provides an overview of Autism in a neuro-affirming way. This means we talk about Autism and Autistic people in a way that is respectful of who we are, our strengths and our challenges, and does not prioritise non-Autistic ways of being, thinking and doing.
With over 11,000 registrations since its launch last year, and an overwhelming demand for a professional development component, we are pleased to now offer a quiz and Professional Development Certificate upon completion.
In this course, you will learn about:
- Language
- What Is Autism?
- Brain Differences
- Communication and Socialising
- Thinking and Processing
All learners access the same base information in the course, but each topic has multiple worksheets available for different levels of knowledge about Autism. You can choose to complete the level that best fits your knowledge, complete all worksheets, or return to the course work later on in your journey and continue your learning by completing further levels. We encourage you to learn in your own time and customise your learning in a way that works for you.

“As a professional it was brilliant to see information about Autism being presented from the Autistic experience. I think a course like this should be mandatory for any professional working with the Autistic community."
