Empowering People, Launching lives

Employability toolkit

At BeyondAutism we are passionate about increasing employability. We want to see more autistic people with the skills and confidence to enter the work place. At the same time we want employers to feel more confident in supporting autistic people at work.

This toolkit, funded by the City Bridge Foundation, will give autistic people improved access to, and support in, employment. Download the free toolkit and additional resources today, now with an easy read version.

The vocational assessment resources are particularly helpful, as well as the suggestions of reasonable adjustments for application and interview.” Toolkit user
