I have learned a great deal about treating everyone as an individual with individual needs that approaches need to be adapted. I have a better understanding of neurodiversity and the challenges neurodiversity present to safe emergency evacuation.

Michell Brown

Course was very informative. Learned what to do to make it easier for the neurodiverse person when you are meeting them. How we can help neurodiverse persons by explaining and showing them what to do in an emergency this could include letting them gently at first listen to the sound a fire alarm would make.
