This version of Cothú is for anyone supporting parents of Autistic children or teens after identification (diagnosis). You might be a therapist or psychologist in private practise or perhaps you are a parent who runs a peer support group for parents and carers of Autistic children and teens. You might be a member of a charitable organisation who is looking for the perfect way to support parents. You don’t have to be a professional to deliver Cothú, this course is suitable for anyone who plays a supportive role to parents of Autistic children and teens

Cothú is a Train the Trainer Course for diagnostic teams, social workers and other professionals supporting parents of Autistic children who are looking for a neuro-affirming course to deliver to those parents to start them on the right track after identification of their child. The parent course is then delivered by your team as a 5 week course of 2 hours per week.
We will deliver training in AUsome ethos, methods, ideologies and train professionals to deliver the course to parent groups of up to 12 people.
All course materials, slides, pdfs are provided so you can concentrate on building that connection with parents and your supportive role in delivering neuro-affirming content.
We are finding that levels of knowledge on neuro-affirming approaches and Autistic content vary vastly in teams depending on previous exposure to Autistic Culture and so we have added more content so our pathway to training now looks like this:
Induction day – self led, online 6 hour training course so that everyone is on the same page before being trained in Cothú. At this stage we look at the history of autism, problematic theories and research, the exclusion of Autistics, Autistic rights, trauma and neuro-affirming approaches.
This is followed by assessment so that we can be sure everyone understands our rights based approach and will be able to deliver Cothú as it is intended.
Upon successful completion trainers can then move onto be trained in delivering the Cothú Program itself. Online and offline options are below:
Training Delivery: Can be delivered online to any team in the world or offline if your team is based in Ireland
