Shanghai unveils first vocational competence assessment for autism rehabilitation services
By He Qi
Shanghai officially launched China's first specialized vocational competence assessment project for autism rehabilitation services on Thursday, during the 19th World Autism Awareness Day, addressing a gap in professional certification in this field nationwide.
Led by the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau and evaluated by the city's vocational skills appraisal center, the assessment emphasizes talent specialization. It enhances the comprehensive care system for autistic children across five dimensions: rehabilitation standards, early intervention, educational empowerment, institutional supervision, and family support, providing professional assistance to children and their families.
