Delivering The Global Standard For Training and Certification in The Field of Cognitive Disorders
About us
Delivering The Global Standard For Training and Certification in The Field of Cognitive Disorders For more than 20 years, IBCCES has been the industry leader in cognitive disorder training and certification for education, healthcare, corporate and travel & entertainment professionals around the globe. IBCCES provides evidence-based training and certification programs created in conjunction with its board of clinical and subject matter experts and autistic individuals to provide professionals with a better understanding of autism and other neurodivergencies. EDUCATION 1 in 44 children are diagnosed with autism and 1 in 11 are diagnosed with ADHD. This rapidly growing population dramatically increases the challenges for educators. Our training and certifications ensure teachers are armed with the knowledge and best practices to improve learning outcomes. HEALTHCARE Our specialized training and certifications build upon therapists’ and healthcare providers’ current education to make significant gains toward improved communication and outcomes in clients and patients with autism or other needs. As a result, healthcare professionals are able to increase the quality of care, reduce the cost of delivering services, and ultimately serve patients more effectively. CORPORATE We help our corporate partners educate their staff to ensure appropriate accommodations and next-level service are provided to their clients and visitors with cognitive disorders. We also provide training and certification to ensure workplaces are attracting, hiring, and retaining neurodivergent professionals, whether those are new hires or already working within the organization. TRAVEL & ENTERTAINMENT IBCCES recognized that many families with autistic children or those with other sensory sensitivities may face challenges or hesitation when visiting a new attraction. In response to this need, IBCCES created training and certification programs specifically for hospitality and attractions.
