Mandatory Autism Training

In July 2022, the Health and Care introduced a requirement that regulated service providers ensure their staff receive training on learning disability and autism which is appropriate to the person’s role.


The framework sets out the skills and knowledge that health and social care workers need to deliver high-quality care and support for autistic people.


Autism in Mind has co-designed, co-produced, and is delivering autism training around the Core Capabilities Framework for Supporting Autistic People.


 Mandatory autism training can be valuable for creating more inclusive and supportive environments for autistic individuals, helping to ensure that they receive the understanding and support they need to thrive. 


AIM are dedicated to helping improve access to services for autistic people.

 Our training covers Core Capabilities 1 and 2, providing essential, up-to-date information about autism.


Key topics include:

Double Empathy: Understanding the unique ways autistic people experience and express empathy.

Monotropism: Exploring the focused interests and attention patterns of autistic individuals.

Autistic Inertia: Addressing the challenges related to starting and stopping tasks.


Our training is bespoke and tailored to meet the specific needs of healthcare, mental health, and social care staff.

The most impactful aspect of our training is the inclusion of real-life experiences. We use firsthand accounts from autistic individuals to bring the training to life, providing valuable lived experiences.
