About Us
Get Into Neurodiversity is an ethical, innovative, international professional development platform in Specific Learning Difficulties and Neurodiversity, borne out of charitable efforts towards learning difficulties in Australia by its founders, Jillian Zocher and Liz Dunoon. As it is more the norm than the exception for specific learning difficulties to overlap, Get Into Neurodiversity rose to the demand for quality training to address these varying needs.
Get Into Neurodiversity offers ground-breaking, online, on-demand, video-based, accredited courses, regardless of your location and time zone.
All of our courses are written and presented by international experts and authors within the field of specific Learning Difficulties and Neurodiversity.
The list of training accreditation approvals from education quality standards authorities around the world, continues to grow due to the overwhelmingly positive feedback from Heads of Schools, Deputy Heads, Allied Health Professionals, Learning Support Teachers, Teachers, Teacher Aides and extends to parents and carers.
It is our goal to share this platform with you so as to remove the barriers to learning and be able to reach and teach students across the age range for better life outcomes and improved self-confidence thereby allowing us to celebrate neurodiversity within our ever-changing world.
