Professionals dealing with children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDDs) need to be constantly trained because of the numerous challenges posed by the particularities arising from the multiple conditions that pervade child development. The aim of this study is to describe the training processes of education, health and social care professionals who care for children aged 0 to 12 years with neurodevelopmental disorders.

The revision overview was registered in the PROSPERO platform CRD42018100715 that followed the parameters of the PRISMA protocol and aimed to identify the existing multi-professional training processes, aimed at health professionals, education and social assistance aimed at promoting skills for care with children and families with TND. The research question was structured according to the acronym PICO. The search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CRD, Web of Science, Campbell Library, Health System Evidence, Epistemonikos and Joanna Briggs databases in May 2018.

We selected 23 articles. Of these, 21 (91 percent) were health professionals, 22 (96 percent) referred to intellectual disability, 16 (71 percent) were in the American continent and 15 (65 percent) used in-service training as educational resource. The outcomes showed that the structuring of teaching-learning in the practice of health, education and social care professionals determines a more inclusive proposal in the treatment of children with NDD.

The health professional is the most trained to attend children with NDD, however, training and development policies are lacking for professionals from other areas who act as a gateway to diagnostic services. Establishing in-service training initiatives strengthens the support and structuring of intersectoral programs that would facilitate multi-professional participation in the prognosis and treatment directed at children with NDD. Therefore, associating the use of assistive technologies allows new opportunities to access tools and electronic devices that allow the formation of professionals.
