A few of our frequently asked questions about this course
With the UK facing a growing ADHD diagnosis crisis, NHS waiting lists now average 2–3 years due to the high demand for assessments. By taking this course, you’ll not only gain specialist skills but also play a crucial role in alleviating this crisis. As a healthcare professional, you’ll be making a meaningful difference to individuals in urgent need of timely support and helping to address the ADHD backlog.
Since updates to the NG87 NICE guidelines, the guidance now states that ADHD diagnosis can be carried out by a “suitably qualified practitioner.” To be considered suitably qualified, practitioners must complete specific training that provides them with the knowledge and practical tools to deliver accurate diagnoses.
Our course offers an in-depth look into ADHD in adults, covering DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, the widely recognised DIVA assessment, and practical guidance from expert instructors. You’ll also gain insights into the evolution of ADHD understanding and explore best practices through real-world scenarios.
This course is open to all healthcare practitioners. Prices vary for consultant psychiatrists. As we are a training provider only, please be aware that we do not verify practitioner credentials, and each participant is responsible for securing their own professional indemnity after completing the course.
The course runs for a full 8-hour day via video link on Microsoft Teams. Participants are expected to engage fully in discussions, complete mock assessments, and participate in a final Q&A assessment to demonstrate their understanding.
Participants who complete the course receive a recognised CPD certification, which not only enhances professional credibility but can also be submitted to insurance providers as proof of ADHD diagnostic competence.
With demand for ADHD testing rising each year, private ADHD assessments have become a valuable income stream for qualified practitioners, with professionals able to charge up to £1,500 per assessment. This qualification offers flexibility, allowing you to incorporate assessments into existing work commitments.
Course was very interactive and very educative.
It was an amazing session
I have provided feedback on google. The course is very professional and in depth. It should be enough for any mental health professional to get skilled to use DIVA and diagnose ADHD.
A great course, its given me the motivation I needed to do a career jump into ADHD assessing and hopefully more
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.
I enjoyed the clinical case scenarios
Great service enjoyed the session. Very interactive
I recently completed the ADHD pharmacological management course from adultadhd.com, and it was incredibly insightful and practical. A special thanks to The trainer for clearly explaining the different dose titration strategies — his approach made a complex topic easy to understand. The course has boosted my confidence in managing ADHD in adults and provided valuable tools for safe and effective prescribing. Highly recommended!
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!
The course and training has been valuable in informing me with knowledge about ADHD and further skills in providing ADHD assessment. Also left me wanting to further my knowledge. Thank you.
A really informative course, supporting existing learning around ADHD - feeling confident to now use the DIVA-5 appropriately to support assessments and diagnosis.

Amazing training, engaging and thorough
Very well presented, thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it very informative and helpful - Please NB CV will be sent on Tuesday 17/06/25
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.
amazing session overall.
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.
Excellent course, informative, very knowledgeable trainer. Thank you

Not sure
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)
The course was interactive
Great course
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.

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 information about employment and how to use this knowledge in practice would have been helpful, clear outline of the pathway
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
I really enjoyed the course and it was very informative and insightful.
Very enjoyable training. Very interesting. I would recommend to my colleagues

Very good course intense and very simple at the same time. Very well organised.
GREAT TEACHING
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!
I have been so inspired working in the assessment clinic for ADHD having done the training.. I feel privileged. would so much want to join the Team.
The training significantly improved my ability to understand ADHD and conduct structured ADHD assessments, interpret rating scale and communicate findings effectively to clients and families. The trainer - the course trainer is quite knowledgeable on the subject.
RMN degree and DIVA Trained (ADHD assessor)
Excellent summary course - feel really confident in using the tool and enjoyed the day.
