About the course
Our highly successful accredited training course, Communication and Language Support for Autistic Children and Young People, is available through blended web-based learning. Uniquely, this has an interactive component of which we are very proud.
For one hour each week, participants participate in a lively and informative online discussion led by an experienced Elklan tutor enabling them to share outcomes with others, adding value to the training experience. Another one hour per week is completed online via interactive web-based training.
Participants will receive the same award as if they were completing the course in a more traditional manner. Both courses are accredited at Levels 2 and 3 through an externally quality assured and Ofqual-regulated national Awarding Organisation and learners will receive nine credits at whatever level they chose to study. The Elklan tutor will provide the support learners need to complete a Learning Log.
