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.
