We are currently hiring experts to deliver our Tier 2Â Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism.Â
The Tier 2 of The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is for people who may need to provide care and support for autistic people or people with a learning disability. Experts on this training must be able to confidently share their lived experience and expertise to a room full of people.
Our experts with lived-experience are at the very heart of this training. At Disability Together we ensure that our experts feel confident, welcomed and valued for the experiences they share. It’s why we provide ongoing pastoral support and always make sure our co-trainers are paid fairly (at rates equivalent to NHS Band 5, plus travel expenses).
Our experts bring knowledge, passion and their own very personal lived-experience to every session. We are so proud to have them as part of the team.
