What We Do

External Studies Institute

Under the hosting of Tel Aviv Jaffa College ALUT offers a wide range of professional training programs in the field of autism— established courses that train several multidisciplinary accredited courses, and in addition, ALUT customizes designed trainings in partnership with organizations. Our programs are delivered by leading experts from clinical practice and research, providing up-to-date knowledge and practical tools for implementation.

Research & Partnerships

ALUT collaborates with internal researchers and a variety of academic institutions to advance understanding of autism and to develop new interventions and research-based assistive technologies. We support researchers and entrepreneurs in utilizing ALUT’s field-based knowledge, data, and service frameworks to expand learning and improve services. All new trainings and interventions are accompanied by evaluation processes to enhance quality and assess effectiveness.

Professional Development

We develop and write professional protocols that bring together theoretical and clinical knowledge into clear, practical frameworks. These protocols support consistent, high-quality professional practice across core areas of expertise.

Accessibility Services

Accessible environments make a meaningful difference in participation and personal well-being. We work to adapt ALUT spaces, programs, and activities to meet the needs of people across the autistic spectrum. In addition, organizations, institutions, and communities can engage ALUT for consultation and ongoing guidance to make spaces more autism-accessible—including educational environments, leisure settings, and more.
