Autism. What does it mean?

Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are a range of neurological disorders that are often characterized by social impairments, communication difficulties, and restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped patterns of behavior. The degrees to which these characteristics display themselves vary from individuals who can live relatively independent lives to those requiring more intensive care.

Dr. Stephen Shore, who has ASD, is well known for his quote, “If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.” This simple quote explains these complex disorders very well. No two people with ASD are exactly the same; each one has their own talents, interests, strengths and weaknesses.

Those who enter into the career of becoming an Autism Therapist with Autism Therapy Career College will learn about these unique individuals with ASDs and how to educate them using a proven method of teaching called Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). This field of work is high in demand. Enjoy a career supporting children with autism to achieve the highest quality life possible.
