About the Program
The Autism Works program is delivered over five stages with adults on the autism spectrum and are seeking employment or need advice to maintain their employment and achieve promotion within the workplace.
The course covers four distinct topics, presented in stages 1-4. These four stages are:
- Stress and sensory management tools
- Social tools
- Thinking and awareness tools
- Organizational tools
These four stages were carefully chosen and designed to directly address key problems that can occur in the workplace for a person on the autism spectrum, based on research and clinical experience.
The fifth stage is designed to incorporate and consolidate previous learning through the introduction of the Plan to Thrive. The fifth stage is dedicated creating your personal Plan to Thrive, incorporating not only previously learned material, but personal goal setting, planning, setting up your support team and self-monitoring plan. The Plan to Thrive is designed to be both a planning tool and a communication tool.

- Pre-course questionnaires (6)
- Pre-course Readings (8)
- Video-recordings for each reading (8)
- Workbooks for each stage (4)
- Workbook to collate key ideas and plans (1) – Plan to Thrive
