  • Course description
    Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnoses are burgeoning, presenting unique challenges for educators and therapists. Antioch University New England heard the urgent call for training and established this Center to deliver in-depth knowledge in this area. Through the Autism Spectrum Disorders Certificate Program and a variety of continuing education workshops and courses, Antioch University New England provides essential training so you can better serve individuals on the autism spectrum.

    Currently practicing counselors, psychologists, educators, special educators, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, tutors, parents and advocates will benefit from this specialized training. We focus on working closely with higher-functioning individuals on the spectrum, including those with Asperger Syndrome, High Functioning Autism (HFA), and Pervasive Developmental Disorder - Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS).
