What are the #employment aspirations of #autistic graduates in Finland? How do the experiences in the working life differ from person to person and are there similarities?

Answers to these questions and more can be found on Pinja Turja's blog post: https://t.co/XnFVfvGC3H

Effective strategies for supporting autistic employees consist of
🔸supportive physical environment,
🔸social interaction support, and
🔸autism acceptance and awareness.

However, these strategies are not used effectively enough.

Many #autistic #graduate's aren't finding work. Or they work in low-level, low-paid jobs that don’t make the best use of their skills.

Our training package for #CareerAdvisor addresses this challenge.

Access to #employment is a key factor for inclusion. #Autistic people should have equal opportunities to make the most out of their potential in education and workplace thanks to #accessible environments and reasonable accommodation. Great campaign! @AutismEurope #AutismDay2021

[Graduate Futures Institute @AGCAS]

"As key players within the broader employability ecosystem, appropriate resourcing of university careers services, disability support teams and other relevant professional services would be a good place to start in order to put effective interventions in place at-scale."
