Kings Island has partnered with The International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES), a global leader in online training and certification programs, to be designated as a Certified Autism Center™ (CAC).

Over the past several months, Kings Island’s staff has received specialized training to ensure they have the requisite knowledge, skills, temperament and expertise to cater to better communicate and engage with all children, including those with special needs.

As a leader in healthcare, corporate, and education certification for more than 20 years, IBCCES recognized the need for more trained and certified travel and entertainment options. In response to feedback from families and individuals with sensory needs, IBCCES adapted its evidence-based programs specifically for amusement parks, zoos, resorts, aquariums, and other family entertainment venues.

IBCCES also created AutismTravel.com, a free online resource for parents that lists certified destinations and connects families to other resources and each other. Each destination listed on the site has met Certified Autism Center (CAC) requirements.

Learn more about the Certified Autism Center™ designation here.
