Are you an employer? We would like to hear from you! 🗣
We're running a short survey as part of the Erasmus+ funded project “Creating employment opportunities for autistic persons” and your voice matters!

📌 Why?
- To understand the key outcomes employers are seeking when engaging in training around supporting Autistic employees
- To understand what facilitates and challenges employers to create change in their employment practices following training
- To understand employers’ perceived gaps in knowledge and skills, where they have previously undergone training in supporting Autistic employment

📝 Access the survey through the link:
