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.

Brilliant course
The course was very insightful and trainer was patient, taking his time to answer all the questions from the students
it was worth attending, great insight into the course and management.
Well enjoyed and informative
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.
I attended the Diagnostic ADHD Course, and it exceeded my expectations. The instructor presented diagnostic concepts with clarity and compassion, balancing theoretical guidelines with practical application. I gained a solid understanding of assessment frameworks, common presentations across age groups, and how to translate findings into actionable support plans. This course is a valuable resource for students, professionals, and individuals seeking a nuanced, evidence-based understanding of ADHD.
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it to be very informative.

Thanks to Dr Pav and a brilliant delivery
Interested to joint the ADHD assessment team
Fantastic course. I am thoroughly confident that it has given me the knowledge and skills required to perform diagnostic assessments for ADHD. Dr Pav 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!
Outstanding course, trainer very knowledgeable and engaging, would recommend for anyone wanting to gain a recognised qualification that will enable the clinician to work as a qualified ADHD assessor.
Very informative
Great course - very insightful and thorough
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.
I found the assessment case to be extremely good.
INFORMATIVE

Great course. Loads of information. Dr Pav is brilliant and his experience is invaluable. I feel if the DIVA tool was used throughout the training from the get go it would of been more helpful. The actual use of it at the end was a bit rushed. Overall I feel the course is excellent.
The course was informative
Very informative and highly recommended.
Fantastic course

Brilliant course well delivered .The trainer was very composed and professional answered all question posed to him by candidates through the session.
i found the course to be very informative and easy to follow. I liked the group discussions and case studies
Very Informative course
Really enjoyed the course very informative. It was worth it.
The ADHD training was informative and insightful. I appreciated the level of detail and the effort the facilitator put into explaining the concepts. However, I found that one day (eight hours) wasn’t quite enough to take in all the information because the topic is quite broad and detailed. I’m still in the process of going through the learning materials again to deepen my understanding and reinforce what I’ve learned. Overall, the session was valuable and gave me a good foundation, but I would have benefited from more time to digest and practice the concepts covered.
I found the break out rooms so early on to be too long and unstructured, people were saying a lot of things that I felt weren't entirely accurate or were misleading but there was no one to correct or help structure these discussions. I feel it would have been better to have more of the structured information at the beginning and then break out rooms and discussions towards the end to maybe do some practice scoring together.
Great course, very informative and interesting
This has been a very enjoyable course so far! I have been engaged throughout which is very rare and the content is essential for my clinical practice. Would highly recommend!
Enjoyed and learned a lot about ADHD clients, assessment and diagnosis
amazing course
Amazing training.

Very useful course! Very welcoming for those of us that do not prescribe medication as well which was really lovely! I would like to know more pathways about potentially increasing skills to be able to go into ADHD coaching as this sounds very interesting also!
amazing session overall.
Fabulous course, intensive, informative and engaging. Dr Pav has a relaxed and simultaneously enthusiastic teaching style. Which made the course highly enjoyable. Good to be able to connect with other like minded professionals. I highly recommend this course to therapists wishing to expand and develop their ADHD assessment knowledge.
