At Thrive, our vision is to help one person at a time to thrive and to be the best version of themselves that they can be.
How do we help one person at a time?
By making sure that the right support, help, and resources are available to everyone.
But we need your help to achieve this.
Could this be you?
Qualifying as a Thrive Instructor Partner means that you can offer a premium service to a market that’s just waking up to the potential of fully embracing neurodiversity.
Our Instructor partner course lasts for seven days, with a mix of face-to-face and virtual modules (see time-table)
We cover
• How a neurodiverse mind works
• How proactive inclusion can help employers retain & empower staff
• What it means to experience sensory overload
• How all neurodiverse behaviour is actually communication
Peer assessment and sign-off process to become an approved Instructor Partner.
We provide all the training materials you will need, along with access to a digital portal - a hub to access the latest resources and stay connected with us and your fellow Thrive Instructor Partners.
The Thrive Instructor Partner Resource Hub is included free for one year as part of your training. After the first 12 months we will invite you to join the membership* to continue access to all the up to date materials and resources to keep your skills up to date and relevant. *(currently £150 +VAT annually thereafter.)
The Instructor Partner Resource Hub is a one-stop-shop to the up to date info and materials you will be using when delivering your training.
Included
• We always drop the latest info to your PowerPoint deck
• Find useful resources to include in your presentations
• Be part of our community and connect with fellow Thrive instructors.
The one year free membership starts on the last day of your training.
A 7-day training programme comprising of 8 modules, and attendance of a live or recorded session of the Thrive Neurodiversity in the Workplace Aware Webinar and Thrive Neurodiversity in the Workplace Champion Workshop.
Our main requirement of you is commitment. Each module and training day - including your end assessment and celebration day – contains essential content you won’t want to miss. If you think you can’t make all the dates, please choose a cohort where you can. Whilst all virtual sessions are recorded, nothing creates inclusion like a cohort that all trains together.
