The Open University are currently running this very informative FREE online course Understanding autism.

Another excellent FREE course, Autism Awareness For All, has been written by our friend,  Timothy Sproule. Tim was diagnosed with Asperger's at 7 years old and as an adult, has been teaching martial arts to children on the spectrum for 13 years. Tim's personal experience, together with his fantastic teaching ability, makes this easy to follow awareness course, very informative and a must have for anyone who has little experience or understanding of the condition.

Arlene and the rest of her very talented family, have first hand experience of what it's like to live with ASC. We are fortunate to know the Sproule family and have welcomed their contributions to the world of autism education, including Dad, Mark, who writes and teaches all manner of vocational qualification courses, daughter Courtney, who designed SAM The Dinosaur and son Timothy, who writes autism awareness courses. This fantastic book is just one of many talented results from the Sproule family genius. Get hold of the book and follow ASC Rabbit on Facebook.
