Learning Disability & Autism Awareness – Tier 2 Train the Trainer Programme Advance your organisation’s workforce development with our Tier 2 Train the Trainer Programme in Learning Disability and Autism — a comprehensive 2-day accredited programme designed specifically for hands-on care and support staff delivering direct care to individuals with Learning Disabilities and/or Autism. This enhanced Tier 2 qualification explores Learning Disability and Autism in far greater depth, equipping trainers with the advanced knowledge, confidence, and practical delivery skills required to educate frontline teams in meaningful, person-centred care practices. Throughout the programme, delegates will develop a deeper understanding of Learning Disabilities, Autism, neurodiversity, communication differences, sensory processing, reasonable adjustments, anxiety, mental health, co-occurring conditions, behaviours of distress, health inequalities, and inclusive support approaches. The course explores real-life autistic perspectives, strengths-based practice, the “spiky profile”, communication techniques, sensory needs, and how to create supportive, empowering environments that improve outcomes for individuals receiving care and support. The programme also examines the significant health inequalities faced by individuals with Learning Disabilities and Autism, helping staff recognise barriers to healthcare access, identify associated health conditions, and understand the importance of person-centred, inclusive care delivery. This fully endorsed and accredited programme is accredited by the The CPD Certification Service for 3 years, helping organisations demonstrate compliance with Learning and Development responsibilities while evidencing commitment to high-quality, inclusive care standards. Importantly, upon completion of this programme and the subsequent delivery of the training to your workforce, organisations will be able to demonstrate compliance with the 2021 amendment to the Health and Care Act 2022, which requires all health and social care staff to receive appropriate Learning Disability and Autism training relevant to their role. Candidates will be guided step-by-step through how to successfully facilitate and deliver the Tier 2 programme within their own organisation, making this ideal for internal trainers, senior carers, team leaders, support workers, healthcare professionals, and workforce development leads. Following successful completion, delegates will receive a complete trainer package including: Full training materials and presentation resources Comprehensive trainer delivery guide Interactive activity packs and exercises Supporting learner resources Blank accredited certificates for internal delivery Ongoing ability to deliver the programme in-house Designed to improve confidence, competency, and workforce capability, this programme empowers organisations to create sustainable in-house training provision while improving outcomes and experiences for individuals with Learning Disabilities and Autism.
