About Autism Edmonton LMS

Learning built for the autism community

Autism Edmonton LMS is a free learning platform created by Autism Edmonton to help autistic individuals, caregivers, and professionals access practical, high-quality education โ€” at their own pace, in a calm and welcoming space.

About Autism Edmonton

Autism Edmonton is a non-profit organization based in Edmonton, Alberta, dedicated to supporting autistic individuals and their families throughout every stage of life. Since our founding, we have worked to build an inclusive community where autistic people are understood, valued, and empowered.

We provide programs, resources, and advocacy that address the real challenges faced by autistic Edmontonians โ€” from navigating housing and employment to building relationships and understanding their own identity.

This learning platform is an extension of that mission: making Autism Edmonton's knowledge and expertise available to anyone, anywhere, at any time.

Our values

The principles that guide every decision we make.

Dignity First

Every person with autism deserves to be treated with respect, understanding, and dignity. Our platform reflects this in every interaction.

We focus on what autistic people can do, not what they cannot. Our content highlights capabilities, talents, and pathways to independence.

Learning does not stop after school. We provide resources for every stage of life, from early adulthood through employment and beyond.

Safe & Accessible

A calm, low-clutter environment designed to reduce sensory overwhelm. No flashing content, no noise, no pressure.
