Overview

     

 

The Neurodiversity at Work Research Workshop brings together leading scholars, neurodivergent leaders, neurodiversity practitioners, and leading neurodiversity employers concerned with advancing neurodiversity employment research. Their work may relate to the preparation, recruitment, persistence, and advancement of neurodivergent individuals in the workplace. Any individual interested in learning about neurodiversity employment research is welcome to attend!

This year, the workshop will focus on questions surrounding sustaining efforts that support effective and comprehensive approaches to education and employment that improve employment outcomes and the well-being of the neurodivergent community. Our goals are to:

    1. Build a community of people concerned with research related to the preparation and employment of neurodistinct individuals and convey our discoveries to others in the community
    2. Provide a collaborative space for scholars to share their work and receive constructive feedback in order to advance neurodiversity employment research
    3. Further develop a research agenda to advance evidence-based practices to equitably include neurodivergent people in the workplace

Workshop Format

The Neurodiversity at Work Research Workshop will be in person this year at the University of Washington campus in Seattle, WA, USA on June 20 and June 21, 2023. There will be no hybrid or remote option this year.
