Course FAQ
Frequently asked questions
A few frequently asked questions about our training courses.
Why should I choose Global ADHD Network Courses?+
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 these courses, 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.
What qualifies someone to diagnose ADHD according to NICE guidelines?+
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.
What will I learn in the course?+
Our courses offer 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.
Who is eligible for the course?+
These courses are 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.
How long is the course?+
The ADHD Assessor and Management courses run for a full 8-hour day via video link. The ADI-R and ADOS-2 certifications run as two-day intensives. Participants engage fully in discussions, complete mock assessments, and take a final Q&A assessment to demonstrate their understanding.
How are the courses certified?+
Participants who complete a course receive a recognised CPD certification, which not only enhances professional credibility but can also be submitted to insurance providers as proof of competence.
What income opportunities are available with this certification?+
With demand for ADHD and autism assessments rising each year, qualified practitioners can charge up to £1,500 per assessment. This qualification offers flexibility, allowing you to incorporate assessments into existing work commitments.
