Does anyone know if Cigna covers social skills training for people with Asperger's? I am looking at getting some training for my job and my life but I can't seem to find any information on it from the cigna website. I'm probably just blind, though. :oops:

well, our company used to use a site called Netg; they had over a thousand courses. Was able to download quite a few before they switched us to another (company based) site. Found some of the following

Emotional Intelligence
Developing a Positive attitude
Assertiveness training
How to deal with Unruly Clients (something like that)
How to deal with unruly Bosses (no kidding)

...and so forth. Finished the Positive course (some help, but no miracles..;), started Emotional Intelligence.

There's also all sorts of boring computer courses like the '+' courses (A,N,S, and L+), Cisco training, most commercial apps, etc. Also basic wiring, electronics, who knows what else.

Give it a shot...
