Healthcare is constantly evolving and thus requires lifelong learning. Evidence-based learning has been shown to lead to better patient outcomes, yet many healthcare professionals report gaps in their research abilities. We sought to evaluate the efficacy of a professional development program in addressing identified gaps.

Abstract Viewing all children as active participants in their own learning is central to inclusion. That children with atypical development experience a level of belonging that enables this in mainstream early childhood education and care (ECEC) settings remains a topic of hot debate and very much an unmet goal across the sector. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in particular, face significant challenges in ECEC settings, their educators continually seeking solutions for greater support. Given the escalating demand on mainstream ECEC settings to include these children, it was important to identify the specific supports needed by educators to achieve this with confidence and competence. This study investigated the outcomes of applying an evidence-based model of intervention to mainstream services via a targeted professional development program. Results of the study found that the benefits of engagement with mainstream ECEC settings extended beyond child outcomes to educators who were supported to develop the knowledge, understanding, and strategies to engage and teach children with ASD and manage their behaviours.
