Awareness Session

Neurodiversity Awareness Training

Help your whole workforce understand what neurodiversity means, challenge the assumptions that hold neurodivergent colleagues back, and build a genuinely inclusive culture where cognitive differences are valued.

Why This Matters

One in seven people are neurodivergent — yet most workplaces are still designed for the other six

Neurodivergent employees are often misunderstood, underestimated, or penalised for the very traits that give them their greatest strengths. Awareness changes that — creating the shared understanding that allows inclusion to become a lived reality rather than a stated value.

1 in 7
people are neurodivergent
Around 15% of the UK population are neurodivergent — including dyslexia, ADHD, autism, dyspraxia, and dyscalculia. In a team of 20, that’s statistically around three people.
30–40%
of neurodivergent employees are undiagnosed
Many neurodivergent employees have never received a diagnosis and are navigating workplaces built around neurotypical expectations — often at significant personal cost in energy, confidence, and wellbeing.

What You’ll Learn

Understanding and allyship skills to make your workplace more genuinely inclusive

  • Understand what neurodiversity means and the range of conditions it encompasses — including ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and more
  • Challenge common myths and misconceptions that create barriers for neurodivergent colleagues in everyday working life
  • Recognise the significant strengths that often accompany neurodivergent conditions — and how to create conditions where those strengths can flourish
  • Adapt communication and collaboration styles to be more accessible for colleagues with different cognitive processing styles
  • Be an active ally — speaking up, making space, and supporting colleagues who may be masking or struggling without disclosure
  • Understand what reasonable adjustments look like in practice and why they benefit the whole team, not just those who request them
Who This Is For

For any organisation that wants inclusion to mean more than a policy on a page

This session works for the whole workforce — from frontline teams to senior leadership. It’s particularly powerful when run alongside the manager-focused Neurodiversity for Managers course, building shared language across all levels.

👥All Employees

Any team member who wants to better understand their neurodivergent colleagues, challenge their own assumptions, and contribute to a more inclusive workplace.

👤Team Leaders

Those who influence the day-to-day team environment and want practical tools to ensure that neurodivergent team members aren’t disadvantaged by default working practices.

📋HR & DEI Teams

People and inclusion professionals building a neurodiversity strategy and looking for a credible, evidence-based awareness session to anchor it around.

How It Works

How Neurodiversity Awareness Training is delivered

Tailored to your organisation’s specific context — not a generic awareness session delivered off the shelf.

1

Tailored Onboarding

We start by understanding your organisation’s existing culture, any current neurodiversity initiatives, and the specific working environment your employees operate in — so the session feels relevant rather than generic.

2

Training Delivery

An engaging, evidence-based session delivered onsite or online. Employees leave with greater understanding, practical language, and a clearer sense of how they can contribute to a more inclusive team culture.

3

Sustained Impact

Post-training resources and reflection prompts help employees continue applying what they’ve learned — building lasting changes in how neurodiversity is understood and valued in your organisation.
