I benefited so much from the two courses completed with Private ADHD. Both have been brilliant at equipping me with a robust and detailed knowledge base on the diagnostic criteria, process of assessment and qualifications to be able to assess ADHD (in addition to Autism and Dyslexia) within an MDT - and with detailed insight into medication and management of ADHD, essential to the services I provide as a Neuroaffirming Consultant and Mentor: pre and post diagnostic support to individuals of all ages, and to families and schools.
Incredible course. Fantastic approach from The trainer and the 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.
Great course - thank you
I have thoroughly enjoyed the course. It has been engaging and interactive which has suited my learning style.it is delivered well and very informative. The trainer is very knowledgeable and has enabled me to broaden my knowledge and take away information to read further.
I learned so much from this training even in the first 10 minutes of starting, so I immediately felt like I was in good hands. I feel well-equipped to start assessing people for ADHD and I can't thank you enough for how easy the training was to follow and I'm so impressed by your knowledge. Thank you!
This was an excellent course, comprehensive structure with access to multiple resources. Explored in depth the use of the DIVA-5, helpful tips on implementing this diagnostic tool. The trainer is a passionate clinician and fostered interesting and thought provoking discussions in the group.
Fantastic course I have learned so much and looking forward to doing autism course

Not sure
I really enjoyed the course and it was very informative and insightful.
A fully comprehensive course, well -paced, and interactive. Has left me feeling confident to go ahead and complete ADHD assessments in NHS and private settings.
I particularly enjoyed the mock assessment - applying knowledge acquired from the course and using the DIVA. The trainer was great, thank you.
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.

I enjoyed the training! The content was incredibly thorough and up-to-date. It covered everything from the latest diagnostic criteria to the best assessment tools and methods. The videos and reading materials were clear, engaging, and easy to follow. The interactive elements and the patient interview video near the end of the training were particularly helpful in applying theoretical knowledge to real assessment scenarios.
Great first day, looking forward to tomorrow's session. I did feel that the break-out room time may be bit lengthy. Felt like getting back into bigger groups and hearing The trainer's experience was more beneficial. Or prehaps, switching up the groups?
The DIVA Diagnosis Course with The trainer was an excellent, informative day. Id recommend it for anyone looking to deepen their understanding and diagnosing ADHD. It provides a comprehensive overview of the diagnostic process, including clear guidance on administration and scoring. The course does an outstanding job of breaking down complex concepts and highlighting the real-life impact ADHD has on individuals across various contexts. Whether you're a clinician, educator, or simply someone seeking more knowledge, this course offers practical insights and a strong foundation for understanding and supporting those with ADHD.
