ABSTRACT: 

PROC ASD aims to enhance ICT professionals’ skills to include people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in coding training. The project emerges from the need to provide suitable and inclusive employability opportunities for people with ASD, while recognizing the shortage of well-trained ICT individuals in the EU. Adopting a collaborative approach, PROC ASD seeks to develop innovative learning materials for use by trainers in coding courses designed for people with ASD.

  1. Open-access online learning course/platform for people with ASD, online webinar for trainers (ToT) and five peer learning sessions.
