At PERSPECTIVE, we believe the first step towards any change is understanding. Explore real-life experiences, learn what works in education and workplaces, and turn that knowledge into practice by building environments that welcome autistic people and providing autistic people with tools for career planning, skill development, and preparation for employment.
Learning Modules
WHY PERSPECTIVE?
Despite growing awareness and the need for diverse talents, misunderstandings and gaps in knowledge about autism are still common. We see that as an opportunity to keep the conversation going and deepen understanding. One way to support autistic people is to strengthen the bridge from vocational education to employment by equipping educators and employers with needs-based tools and knowledge, combined with real-life experiences to create a more holistic learning and hiring process. We also are here to support autistic people directly with practical tools for choosing a professional path, developing skills, and preparing for employment.
This platform follows a holistic learning approach that combines real-life experiences with practical tools. You learn by listening to autistic people, educators, and employers, then deepen your understanding through learning modules with practical tools and tutorials. The skills you develop and the knowledge you gain can be applied across classrooms, training, and workplaces to create supportive environments. We offer also practical tools to autistic people, because learning and preparation go hand in hand. This is how we bring change.
