Coming from a pharmacy background I didn't find this course challenging, however I still found it beneficial particularly the case studies. There was a video of a patient which I found quite difficult to follow perhaps because I was flagging and it was just before lunch. I would recommend this course to all clinicians.
The course was very detailed . The tutor explained every stage of the way on how an assessor need to conduct the assessment and focus on the tool we used. The Tutor gave every one of us a chance to interact/participate in groups. I really liked the way the training was done. It was an eye opener in how to conduct an ADHD assessment. The Tutor was partiant and we would ask questions and he explained fully even after the training was over.
Excellent course today, informative, break out rooms worked well, interactive
Good course
Content was excellent, brilliantly facilitated by The trainer
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.
Thoroughly enjoyed the course
Great course, thorough detail on how to deliver DIVA-5 Assessment.

found the ADHD Assessor Course to be an incredibly valuable and well-structured training experience.

The content was evidence-based and clinically relevant, with a strong emphasis on both accuracy and empathy in the assessment process. The course facilitators were knowledgeable and approachable, offering real-world insights and support throughout. I now feel much more confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully to ADHD assessment pathways and support individuals in accessing timely and appropriate care. I would highly recommend this course to any healthcare professional looking to expand their expertise in ADHD assessment.

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

Very well presented by knowledgeable team.
Amazing session, I feel very confident on how to use the DIVA and my knowledge on ADHD has massively improved
