Autism Awareness Talks
Alongside our popular training courses, we also offer short talks for staff development events and meetings. These sessions work especially well as “Lunch and Learn” or "Breakfast and Learn" events—just remember, you’ll need to provide the snacks!
​
Our talks can be tailored, within reason, to meet your team’s needs, but they generally focus on explaining what autism is (and isn’t) and debunking common myths.
​
Unlike a full training session, our talks are informal and don’t include activities; they are interactive, though, so attendees should be prepared to think and take part.
​
These talks are suitable for all staff and are delivered at your location. They are designed to take place during a lunch hour (although we can run them any time) with the speaker delivering for 30–40 minutes, leaving plenty of time for Q&A. There is no limit on the number of attendees, although we do recommend doing multiple sessions if you have more than 30 people who wish to attend.​​
​
Cost: £250 per talk.

"Autism Guernsey delivered the training in a way that made me understand and learn so much – from not knowing anything about autism to being knowledgeable now."
"The training was engaging, relatable, well-presented with just the right amount of interactive activities. I found it very informative and definitely improved my understanding and awareness of autism."
