Hello, you seem like a really dedicated parent. This forum is a great place to start to learn about your autistic son.
In order to learn about your son’s autistic experience it is best to hear from autistic adults.
These websites offer autistic led training:

I hope these links are useful.
Well, poke around this NAS site. There are courses from seminars on specific topics to post grads developed with NAS at Sheffield Halam, out there. Then, there's the Autism Show once a year.
Otherwise, make a list of your questions and drip feed them out here. We'll give you an autistic person's insight and the mods will pop in with references and links to advice pages.
