An original, on-demand training from Kieran Rose

Meltdowns, Shutdowns & Autistic Burnout in Autistic Children & Young People in Education Settings

A look into why educational settings can be so challenging for autistic children and young people

This powerful session was originally made as a presentation to Mental Health practitioners working with school-aged Autistic children and Young people.

In this 45 minute training Kieran looks at the relationship between Meltdowns, Shutdowns and Autistic Burnout with Autistic Wellbeing.

What You'll Learn:

  • The context of the school environment in relation to autistic pupils. 
  • What can contribute to Meltdowns, Shutdowns and the larger theme of Autistic Burnout 
  • The relationship of all the above with 'school refusal' and 'EBSA' narratives.
  • Behavioural ideology around Meltdowns, Shutdowns and Autistic Burnout.
  • Why this ideology which often feeds into making situations worse instead of better.
  • The definitions of Meltdowns, Shutdowns and Autistic Burnout, identifying them and the role of Practitioners in supporting those engaging in them.
  • How Autistic Masking, Monotropism and Double Empathy are related to all of this.

    Who Is This Course For?

    • While aimed at Mental Health Practitioners and Education staff, this training is useful for anyone working with, or supporting Autistic children and Young people accessing any type of Education settings.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Some of the most commonly asked questions about my on-demand autism training. If you have anything else you would like to ask please email us at michelle<at>theautisticadvocate.com

      How long do I have access for? 

      For my own on-demand trainings you have lifetime access. This means the lifetime of the training, not your lifetime (or Kieran's lifetime!!). Should we decide to no longer sell the training we will give you plenty of notice so that you have time to watch everything. Where I have co-created trainings with other people the lenght of access may differ and this will be clearly explained on the info page.

      Can I ask Kieran questions?

      All of my on-demand trainings are pre-recorded and don't have any direct access to me.

      I have bought my place but am struggling to access the training inside of Teachable. Can you help?

      Please email Michelle and she will help you - michelle<at>theautisticadvocate.com

      How do I contact you?

      Via email; michelle<at>theautisticadvocate.com

      Why do you charge in multiple currencies? What if my currency isn't listed? 

      We're based in th UK and have students worldwide so we offer $USD, GBP and Euro payments as standard.

      Our online school is hosted on the Teachable platform. Payments are processed via Teachable's own checkout system.

      If you'd like to pay in your on currency please email michelle<at>theautisticadvocate.com, let us know your currency and we can send you a payment link for most international currencies (if we put them all on the sales page it gets a bit messy, which is why we have only listed used the 3 most commonly used currencies!).

      We will convert from GBP to your currency.

      To buy Curating Healthy Lifestyles in Canadian Dollars it will be 22$CAN and in Australian Dollars it will be $25AUS.

      Why am I paying tax?

      Students may have to pay tax at their local rate. This is calculated, and dealt with by Teachable (where we host our online school and where payments are taken), as per the tax rules in your country/state.

      We do not receive any of your tax.

      UK customers are not currently subject to UK VAT.

      We do need you to complete the relevant section on the checkout page if you are a business/charity etc so that the sales tax is dealt with correctly.

      Does the course come with CEU/CPD credits?

      No, but they do all have the option to download a personalised completion certificate/

      Do you offer bursaries?

      It has always been our aim that Kieran's online trainins are as accessible as possible. 

      However, if you want to buy the training but paying will make you struggle financially please contact us and we will always try to help you. We can offer full or part bursaries.

      Can I buy spaces for family and friends?

      Yes, Teachable now offers this feature. You can choose this option at the checkout for all of our trainings. You would need to buy a place for each individual person as each purchase gives one person access.

      Do you offer refunds?

      No. Due to the immediate access you receive to all of the training and resources we do not offer refunds.

      We are willing to be flexible for up to 30 days if you have not accessed any of the training material you purchased. If you accessed any of the material within 30 days we reserve the right not to offer you a refund.

      Whilst this may sound harsh, we do this to discourage people from signing up, downloading all of the course materislas, and then 'complaining' and demanding a refund (this happens more than you believe!). We run a business which supports our family so we try to be firm, yet fair.

      We do have terms and conditions (https://theautisticadvocate.com/terms/) if you would like to see these before deciding to make your purchase.

      Why do you swap between 'I' and 'we' on this page?

      Good question! Kieran creates all of the training and when it's him talking about that he uses 'I' e.g. 'I created The Inside of Autism.'

      However, we're a family-run business as Michelle, Kieran's wife, supports him with marketing, running our online school, building the website, general admin etc. So if you spot a 'we' that's talking about something Michelle and Kieran do as a team. 

      What is KMR Training?

      The Autistic Advocate is one part of the business Kieran runs with his wife, Michelle Rose. Michelle supports Kieran and also offers marketing mentoring for small businesses. Together their business is called 'KMR Training' which stands for Kieran and Michelle Rose. You will see KMR Training on our Teachable platform and also on our invoices and it's nothing to worry about, it's definitely us!

      Not in need of training, but still found my website useful?

      I know not everyone wants, or needs to buy one of my training courses, but I often find people will read one of my free articles and want to say ‘thank you’ (and this is really appreciated as they’re a lot of work to write!) 

      Buying me a virtual coffee is a really easy way to say thanks. 

      It also supports me to keep being able to create new, free content and also keep my older, free content up-to-date. It also allows me to keep my website ad-free.

      My Autism FAQs page is a good place to start if you’re new to my work and want to explore more. Thanks for your support, Kieran.
