The programme is designed and delivered by National Neurodiversity Training and will combine in-person training with live online learning, ensuring managers in both countries develop shared confidence, language, and skills to support neurodivergent colleagues.
The investment comes as Kwalee continues to develop its approach to supporting a diverse workforce following its return to a five-day office week in October 2025.
Since the move, more employees have shared that they are neurodivergent, often in relation to their experience of the office environment.
Around one in five people are estimated to be neurodivergent, with prevalence often higher in creative and technical sectors such as the games industry.
As the company has continued to grow, its leaders have recognised the importance of ensuring managers have the confidence and capability to support a neurodiverse workforce.
Rather than waiting for challenges to arise, particularly with upcoming changes in employee laws, Kwalee is giving managers the tools they need to handle conversations well, make informed decisions, and provide effective support wherever their teams are based.
Through the programme, National Neurodiversity Training will help managers understand how neurodivergence shows up at work and respond confidently when an employee shares that they are neurodivergent.
Managers will also learn how to implement appropriate workplace adjustments and support, navigate their responsibilities, and create environments where neurodivergent employees can thrive and feel psychologically safe.
The blended delivery model has been designed to provide a consistent learning experience across both the UK and India while allowing managers to explore practical, real-world workplace scenarios.
Julia Beaucliffe, HR Advisor and executive assistant at Kwalee, said: “Having attended a school that specialised in dyslexia and dyspraxia, neurodiversity is a subject that is both deeply personal to me and central to my values.
“Excellent support made a world of difference in my own development, and we want to ensure our business offers that same high-level, tailored support to every employee.
“Partnering with the NNT for specialised neurodiversity training is a crucial step in fulfilling that promise.
“In a tech-focused industry where neurodivergent talent thrives, creating a psychologically safe workplace is essential, not only for our culture, but for our team’s overall health and well-being.”
Iveta Pudilova, founder and CEO at National Neurodiversity Training, said: "The games and tech industry attracts people with a huge range of ways of thinking, problem solving and creating.
“Many neurodivergent people bring strengths that are highly valued in game development, from creativity and innovation through to deep focus and technical expertise.
“When managers understand how to respond to disclosure and support different ways of working, they create the conditions for people to do their best work. We're delighted to be working with Kwalee as it invests in the leadership capability needed to support that."
