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.

My 22 year old son was recently screened for ADHD so my personal experience of this neurological disorder has been very enlightening.

Truly grateful for this course. It has been extremely beneficial and informative.

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.
A really good course. Goes over all the NICE guidelines as well as the DIVA. Many practical considerations involved in testing ADHD are covered in detail. Would recommend it.

Interesting and informative course which has increased my understanding of ADHD, DIVA assessment and diagnosis based on DSM-5 criteria and guidelines.
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.
