Neurodiversity
This course acts as an introduction to neurodiversity with an emphasis on how it can impact people in the workplace.
Description
Neurodiversity is the term that describes the naturally occurring variation in the human brain which can impact how we interact with other people, how we process information, our attention, mood, coordination and other brain functions. Although neurodiversity includes both neurodivergent and neurotypical thinkers, it is commonly associated with certain conditions or differences such as dyslexia, ADHD, dyspraxia, autism, Tourette's syndrome and others. Recent studies suggest that 1 in 7 people could be neurodivergent, meaning that organisations that fail to meet the needs of their neurodivergent staff, customers and service users are neglecting a significant portion of the demographic.
Course Objectives
- The meaning of the term ‘neurodiversity', the various ways that it can impact on people, and an overview of the main associated conditions or differences
- Whether neurodivergence is a disability and the role that external factors play
- The importance of creating reasonable adjustment plans and management performance strategies for neurodivergent thinkers
- The need to support carers of neurodivergent thinkers in the workplace
