ACER’s extensive research expertise on educational interventions is unique.

We combine decades of experience across health, social services and education, within the state, voluntary and independent sectors, working with both children and adults. This breadth of expertise has led us to recognise the diversity of the autism spectrum population and adopt an eclectic person-centred ethos.

Our research and training activities involve collaboration with service users, with practitioners and carers and through partnership with key policy makers.  We work interactively with institutions both inside and outside of higher education and we actively encourage prospective partners locally, nationally and internationally.
