The ADHD assessment course from privateadhd.com was incredibly informative and well-structured. It gave me practical tools and a clear framework to confidently assess and support adults with ADHD. Highly recommended for any healthcare professional working in this area
I found the assessment case to be extremely good.
It was interesting
I enjoyed every bit of the training, learnt a lot about ADHD. Happy to start assessing and diagnosing people with ADHD.
Really good course, practical tips and increased my confidence in diagnosing ADHD
Great service enjoyed the session. Very interactive
Very informative session especially in terms of how to use DSM5 criteria. Explained very well even for beginners and always opportunity to ask questions if struggling with any concepts.
I particularly enjoyed the mock assessment - applying knowledge acquired from the course and using the DIVA. The trainer was great, thank you.
Management session even more enjoyable than diagnosis session! (Personal view: Number of cases done very adequate but wouldn't mind even more as like to do plenty of practical sessions based on real-life scenarios even as a takeaway homework to do on own to challenge & improve though process on titration & various management aspects)
I attended on Saturday, and the learning experience was incredible. It confirmed that ADHD is definitely my career route, and I look forward to attending the management course.
Great course thank you Dr Kav
Excellent session, particularly enjoyed the session after lunch where theory was put into practice.
Course trainer extremely knowledgeable, course set at a good pace. Really enjoyed the learning and group interaction. Thank You.
A great comprehensive and concise course that gives you confidence to prescribe in ADHD. The teaching is very clear and easy to understand.
Content was excellent, brilliantly facilitated by The trainer
I found the trainer and the training very informative. I know more about the symptom and diagnosis of ADHD after attending the training. I will recommend the training, well presented
Really enjoyed the course
I recently completed the ADHD training course with The trainer, and it has been a transformative experience. The course provided a comprehensive understanding of ADHD, including the challenges and strengths.
very good course, very detailed
Very informative course, clearly delivered and very accessible.
Great course, really good presentation full of information and real life examples
Very high informative and well structured. It provided a practical understanding of ADHD. It is highly recommended. I will be recommending Private ADHD to colleagues who may be interested in ADHD
Course was very interactive and very educative.
Fantastic course from start to finish. Will certainly recommend.
Well presented course. Very informative
The ADHD training was informative and insightful. I appreciated the level of detail and the effort the facilitator put into explaining the concepts. However, I found that one day (eight hours) wasn’t quite enough to take in all the information because the topic is quite broad and detailed. I’m still in the process of going through the learning materials again to deepen my understanding and reinforce what I’ve learned. Overall, the session was valuable and gave me a good foundation, but I would have benefited from more time to digest and practice the concepts covered.
I really enjoyed the course and learned a lot about ADHD.I hope to apply it in my career
This was a great opportunity to enhence my understanding about ADHD.Today's training has enabled me to acquire relavant skills to diagnose ADHD through a thorough and well guided pathway.The presentation was clear,interactive and kept us well engaged.As a resuilt,i can confidently be invoved in active management of ADHD to assist in alleviating the existing ADHD management crisis.
This training is a life changer I can as well diagnose myself 👏
Course was so informative
I really enjoyed the course. It was very informative. I would introduce others. Learnt a lot. Will be interested in doing Management course
Great course, very informative and well explained.
Very enlightening and thorough course helping show real life examples and the need to improve clinicians awareness in the neurodiverse field
The Training was well taught by The trainer. I feel very confident that the skills and knowledge I have learnt will enable me to complete a comprehensive ADHD assessment
Great course
I really enjoyed attending the assessment and diagnosis course for ADHD. The course is well structured and insightful. I am keen to put my learning into practice now.
GREAT COURSE, VERY THOROUGH AND WELL DELIVERED
The training was clear . I gained new skills
Truly grateful for this course. It has been extremely beneficial and informative. I had concerns that it would be treated like a check box exercise but The trainer demonstrated so much time, care and passion. I am currently working within a prison setting, where I will be conducting my DIVA-5 assessments but I will certainly be looking for a full time role in ADHD assessing.
A great course that gets right to the crux of ADHD, breaking down the key foundations you need to feel confident starting your ADHD prescribing journey.
Informative
The training is very informative and useful. I've learned a lot from it.
Fantastic first day, really enjoyed & informative. Looking forward to the management session tomorrow.

Excellent Training. I have wanted to complete this training for some time. It has not disappointed. Quite the opposite really.
I currently work as an Advanced Nurse Practioner (prescriber) in Primary Care with a significant mental health case load. I have a specific interest in ADHD and found the course to be very informative, I have completed both the assessment and medication management course, both were excellent in terms of delivery and information.
Enjoyed and learned a lot about ADHD clients, assessment and diagnosis
Very informative and helpful to understand on how to manage properly patient with ADHD and ADS , has been delivered in a comprehensive yet effective manner as there is a lot of information to take however it has been made more clearer . Breaks in between were brilliant to have fresh air and come back with more energy to learn more, being in the room was even more productive to share and learn from other clinicians
Good teaching on ADHD
This course was very educative. I have an interview coming up as a prescriber for ADHD, I am more confident now after attending this course
Course is extremely Valuable and informative. It gives a deep insight into the ADHD.
Very informative. Thank you
Yes
A great course, really detailed discussions on how to deliver DIVA-5 assessment and about ADHD.
Comprehensive course with a good balance of core material and activities which generated opportunities for learning. Admin process from booking to receiving the material was smooth and efficient. Really helpful tips around career guidance.
The full day training with The trainer was informative, clear and engaging. The mix of teaching, group work, a quiz and a mock assessment made it practical and enjoyable. The trainer explained everything well and encouraged questions, making it a great learning experience.
Thorough course
confident in ADHD assessment following training
Amazing session, I feel very confident on how to use the DIVA and my knowledge on ADHD has massively improved
Amazing! Very enjoyable and informative. Thank you so much for the training sessions and my interest in pursing my career in adhd has grown immensely and will definitely go for it :)
Very thorough training, excellent to understand nuances in high functioning profiles and masking. Brilliant delivery and overall organisation. Thank you The trainer and team.
A complex, but enjoyable programme. This was more medical focussed on the diagnostic programme, which as a psychologist was less relevant to my day-to-day practice, but this was still very helpful.
Good course
I found The trainer to be incredibly knowledgeable and patient with the training group. Very adaptive to different learning styles and inclusive. I feel capable now to offer an ADHD Diagnosis in my private clinic using the DIVA-5
Really enjoyed the information and what ADHD actually means. The presentation was awesome
Helpful course for the context of ADHD assessment and further insight into framework and assessment tool.
The course instructor was very knowledgeable. Overall the course was very high-quality however, I feel there could’ve been more time spent on the diva assessment and less in breakout rooms.
Great course
Great day, good pacing.
Amazing training, engaging and thorough
A very useful course, tailored to suit just what I need when it comes to further knowledge in assessing and diagnosing ADHD
Really enjoyable session learning about titrating,pharmacology and pharmacokinetics. The trainer provided excellent information and overall great resources were provided. I have walked away happy and confident in being able to at least titrate doses and take into other factors into my overall prescribing decision.
I found the course and material very informative. Course delivery was very good , delivered by The trainer
A great Course well lead
Michael demonstrated a high level of clinical competence and insight throughout his ADHD assessor training. He showed a strong understanding of DSM-5 and NICE guidance, excellent use of structured clinical interviews, and the ability to elicit clear developmental history and functional impairment. His assessments were thorough, well-reasoned, and defensible, with clear consideration of differential diagnoses and risk. Michael consistently worked at an advanced practitioner level and would be a strong asset to any ADHD diagnostic service
The course was useful and informative.
amazing ADHD training, thank you
Loved every minute of this course, and now looking to pursue my nursing career further within this field. A huge thankyou to The trainer for devoting his work to ADHD.
The teaching was very insightful
The course was informative
excellent depth of context
The admin leading up to the day was not ideal for me. I had to ask repeatedly to be sent links for the day before they arrived. The day itself was very professional and informative. I enjoyed The trainer's professional approach and insight. The breaks were interestingly timed. It seemed longer and heavier in the afternoon, which possibly needs a rethink for ADHDer and it did go on a long time. But that said I am pleased I attended as I can now diagnose for ADHD and be part of the solution!
The lessons were clear, engaging and easy to follow. I gained practical skills i can apply straight away and the instructors were supportive throughout.
Excellent Course. Well delivered and informative. Great tips and advice given in how to diagnose Adults and Children with ADHD and the tools needed.
Excellent course and highly recommended
I am glad to have engaged in the course, it was very informative and a lot was discussed over the course of the day. I would definitely recommend for people who have an interest in ADHD and wanting to go forwards with this in their career
Good course today. Interesting discussions in the break out rooms. Good examples and case studies.
Not sure
Great and very informative
A very comprehensive training to be confident in ADHD Assessment
