Elklan's five-session accredited course Supporting Autistic Children and Young People's Communication is offered to those who have completed one of Elklan’s core courses. It is an opportunity for practitioners who have completed a course about SLCN and who want more specialist information about supporting autistic pupils with their language and communication.

The materials and training resources embrace and use neurodiversity-affirming language. The course incorporates consideration of how autistic people may develop language and how differences in communication can be affirmed.

Written as an additional module, you must have completed and gained accreditation on an Elklan core course before attending this training. (If you haven't completed a Elklan core course, please see the ten-session course Communication and Language Support for Autistic Children and Young People.)

Feedback From Participants

Really enjoyed the course! It has really helped me expand my knowledge to understand the children and will come in handy in the classroom.

"I found the course very useful and it led to changes in how we do things which had an impact for particular pupils. I found the course tutor really helpful, supportive and encouraging. The way the course was delivered was ideal to fit in with other commitments. It was really good to be able to engage with other course members and learn from their experiences. Thank you! Really helpful. I will recommend this course to others in different settings
Michelle Dunne, 2021, re: Elklan Supporting Verbal Pupils with ASD
Thank you so much for a course which has changed the way I will work with verbal children with ASD.

So many things I have tried since the course which I wouldn't have thought to have tried before.

The impact it is having on the children at school in the positive has been amazing - although so many odd looks from my team.

The face to face contact has been amazing and each Wednesday evening as been the highlight of my week. Always a smiling face waiting too share her knoweledge.

Thank you so much.
