Every classroom in Nepal already has autistic learners in it — some identified, many not. Smart Minds and Autism Sansar are opening a two-month intensive certificate course that takes pre-primary and primary teachers from a first, honest understanding of autism all the way to what they do on Sunday morning with the child in front of them — bridging the gap between awareness and real classroom practice.

Learning outcome, in short

By the end of the training, participants will have the knowledge and practical skills to understand and support autistic learners in the classroom.

What the course covers

  • Understanding Autism and Child Development
  • Observation and Child Profiling
  • Individualized Education Plan (IEP)
  • Positive Behaviour Support
  • Teaching Strategies

Learning outcomes

By the end of the program, participants will be able to:

  • Understand autism and developmental differences.
  • Conduct structured observations and develop child profiles.
  • Contribute to individualized education planning (IEP).
  • Apply positive behaviour support strategies.
  • Implement effective teaching strategies to support autistic learners.
