Instructor Training
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.

- You’ll be able to educate employers on how neurodiverse strengths can be leveraged, and how employers can benefit when they adopt an “inclusion for all” policy.
- You can have a real impact by spreading neurodiversity awareness and acceptance.
- You can help improve the mental health of people whose lives are affected by stigma and discrimination.
- Qualifying as a Thrive Instructor means that you can offer a premium service to a market that’s just waking up to the potential of fully embracing neurodiversity.
