Formal teacher training courses was found to be rather ineffective in training special education teachers to understand and teach children with autism. It has also been found that inservice training is slightly better in quality. This caused them to have low confidence in their ability to teach children with autism. However, they showed interest to undergo advanced courses to enhance their competence in educating children with autism.
