Why Is Neurodiversity Training for Managers Important?

One in seven UK employees is neurodivergent. Many face barriers at work due to standard management practices that overlook their needs. Employers that allow this mistreatment risk losing talent, reduced performance, reputational harm and potential non-compliance with the Equality Act 2010.

This online neurodiversity course for managers addresses these risks by building a practical awareness of neurodiversity in the workplace.

It first explains common neurotypes and how they may affect communication, working styles, and team dynamics, as well as the relevant legal duties. This equips managers with an understanding of their responsibilities and the potential causes and consequences of discrimination.

The course then provides clear, practical guidance for the fair and effective management of neurodivergent employees. Training covers reasonable adjustments across recruitment, communication, and performance management.

Managers will gain essential knowledge on how to support neurodivergent colleagues and promote inclusivity, which helps reduce risks of discrimination while strengthening team performance and improving staff retention.
