Key Areas
- What is the difference between neurodiversity and neurodivergence?
- How does neurodivergence influence student learning in the veterinary workplace?
- What practical steps can support effective learning for neurodivergent students in practice?
Have you ever worked with a vet or student and found it hard to understand how they were thinking? Perhaps you’ve seen someone struggle with practical tasks, or a student has shared that they are dyslexic, dyspraxic, autistic, or have ADHD, and you weren’t sure what that really meant or how best to help.
Supporting students and colleagues in practice can feel challenging, especially when traditional approaches to learning don’t seem to work. Often, the reason lies in neurodivergence. By developing a clearer understanding of what this means, you can begin to recognise the barriers students face and the ways these can affect learning.
Why do this course?
This course will help you explore practical, supportive strategies that benefit not only neurodivergent learners but also enhance the learning environment for every student and colleague in your practice.
The webinar will run on Wednesday 21st October from 12:30pm London time.
