About the CPD Course

First identified over 70 years ago, autism is a lifelong developmental disability affecting how a person communicates with and relates to others, and how they make sense of the world. It is a spectrum condition, all people on the spectrum share certain difficulties, but their condition affects them in different ways. Around 700,000 people in the UK are on the spectrum, 1 in every 100 people, and there are no blood tests or brain scans that will detect autism.
