Résumé :	It is widely known that many psychiatrists will have gone through their initial training having received very limited information about autism. This is a recognised gap and various initiatives have been developed to address this. In 2016, the Royal College of Psychiatrists (RCPsych) created the 'Championing Autism' programme, one part of which was the creation of the RCPsych Autism Champion role. A one day course entitled 'Autism Essentials for Psychiatrists' was commissioned by Health Education England. The day was focused on improving responses to autistic people without a learning disability who present to services in which psychiatrists work. This paper evaluates the responses given by psychiatrists who attended the course. The level of knowledge regarding autism was generally low, with almost 50 per cent of attendees reporting that they had received no post qualification training in autism at all. The Editor welcomes other papers on good autism practice in the field of psychiatry.

Résumé :

It is widely known that many psychiatrists will have gone through their initial training having received very limited information about autism. This is a recognised gap and various initiatives have been developed to address this. In 2016, the Royal College of Psychiatrists (RCPsych) created the 'Championing Autism' programme, one part of which was the creation of the RCPsych Autism Champion role. A one day course entitled 'Autism Essentials for Psychiatrists' was commissioned by Health Education England. The day was focused on improving responses to autistic people without a learning disability who present to services in which psychiatrists work. This paper evaluates the responses given by psychiatrists who attended the course. The level of knowledge regarding autism was generally low, with almost 50 per cent of attendees reporting that they had received no post qualification training in autism at all.
