The trainer demonstrated a genuine passion for supporting individuals who are neurodivergent, such as those with ADHD and autism. The DIVA Assessment and Diagnosis training was both informative and engaging, and I left feeling inspired to implement positive changes within my practice.
Extremely informative and enjoyed learning about the nice guidelines alongside the different medications individually. The case studies were extremely powerful.
This training was incredibly insightful and deepened my understanding of ADHD and equipped me with practical strategies I can apply both professional and personally.

It was good. Would be good to know if someone comes (adult), what documents/ forms/ letters needs to be filled to diagnose them with ADHD, along with the DIVA.
The trainer delivered this brilliant course and he was able to answer our questions
I found the online ADHD management course to be extremely helpful and well-organized. The content was clear, engaging, and provided a solid mix of theory and practical strategies.

The management strategies has equipped me to provide more comprehensive, actionable guidance to my patients. This course is an essential resource for any healthcare professional committed to excellence in ADHD care.

Brilliant experience, The trainer was very knowledgeable on the subject and his experience shone throughout the training session. Really good techniques used within the training that helps with the learning process!
Fantastic course. I am thoroughly confident that it has given me the knowledge and skills required to perform diagnostic assessments for ADHD. The trainer exceptionally delivered the course content along with his own inside insights to ADHD. I would love to collaborate with him regarding setting up transitional services for neurodivergent clients moving from child to adult services given the huge gap there and my paediatric nursing experience. Please get in touch!
More time spent on going through the DIVA would have been beneficial. Almost constant interruptions from course participants was problematic for how the day progressed - the facilitator was very calm with attempting to manage the group, however the constant questions/comments continued.
The course created a clear and structured framework for assessing ADHD in both Adults and Children. Focusing in the NICE guidelines criteria and the correct usage of diagnostic screening. How to assess clinically both from the client themselves and a third party.
Very well presented by knowledgeable team.
Thank you I am due to take the diagnosis course next Saturday. Looking forward to it.
Great course detailing pharmacological options for ADHD
Thank you very much for delivering such an amazing training. Could not wait to complete it and start my journey into ADHD diagnosis .
My 22 year old son was recently screened for ADHD so my personal experience of this neurological disorder has been very enlightening. In my clinical practice, I also have been assessing and treatment more and more people with ADHD and ASD. The traineri delivered the course well, good pace and breakout rooms were helpful.
The ADHD Adult Diagnostic Assessment (DIVA-5) was conducted in a highly professional and structured manner. The process was comprehensive, evidence-based, and enabled a clear understanding of the individual’s developmental history and current presentation. The assessment training provided a balanced exploration of both NICE and DSM offering valuable clinical insights. Overall, it was a thorough and supportive experience that fostered clarity, validation, and informed planning for appropriate next steps.

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

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.
Great training
