PDA Training 101 – Practical and Direct Advice for Professionals and Others (NON-CERTIFIED)
💡 Autistic-led training offering practical, compassionate strategies
Children and young people with a PDA profile are often misunderstood, leading to inappropriate support, exclusions, family stress and pupils missing from education.
PDA Training 101: Practical and Direct Advice for Professionals and Others has been created to provide clear, evidence-informed and lived-experience-based guidance that makes a real difference.
Led by Eleanor Dyde (Eleanor Dyde Advocacy) and Danielle Jata-Hall (PDA Parenting), this training is rooted in both professional expertise and personal experience, ensuring attendees gain insight that is authentic, practical and immediately applicable.
This training will help attendees:
✅ Develop a solid understanding of PDA as a distinct profile within the autism spectrum
✅ Explore practical strategies for health, education, social care and professional settings
✅ Recognise and challenge unhelpful myths and misconceptions
✅ Gain confidence in creating safe, supportive environments for PDA children
✅ Looking at possible educational options
✅ An overview of sensory needs and the polyvagal theory
Two Learning Routes Available:
✨ Certified Route – For professionals and organisations who require a certificate of completion for training records.

This training is ideal for:
- Educators seeking to better understand and respond to PDA learners
