By: The New England Center for Children "A cornerstone of The New England Center for Children's mission, and one of its core values, is training and developing the next generation of autism educators and researchers," All courses are taught on-site at NECC in Southborough and provide staff practical training and experience, enabling them to have a wide variety of job offers in both public schools and private agencies upon completion of the program. During the last 30 years, the Simmons program at NECC has grown to serve the organization's many facets. In 2019, Simmons added the autism specialization to its degree to reflect students' field-based experiences using applied behavior analysis (ABA). Students have the option to continue with a post-master's degree program in ABA through Western New England University, which is offered on-site at NECC and at a discounted rate. Hundreds of NECC staff alumni who have graduated from the Simmons master's program have gone on to make a difference in the field of autism education, both in the U.S. and across the world. In the fall of 2021, Simmons was approved to begin its first international master's program at the Mohamed bin Rashid Center for Special Education operated by The New England Center for Children (MRC-NECC) in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
