In this episode we have a guest speaker, Whitney Sukonick from the Autism Society of North Carolina. We will be discussing how we as learning professionals can help and support neurodivergent employees when designing and delivering training. We will also go over what type of support these individuals get through their early education, and how any of that support transfers over to their adult lives.

Neurodivergent Individuals and Training with Whitney Sukonick

An L&amp;D podcast with Senior Instructional Designer Jeremy Brown &amp; Senior Project Manager Sarah Meyer. To put it simply: we are terrible students.
