The content was evidence-based and clinically relevant, with a strong emphasis on both accuracy and empathy in the assessment process.

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.

Good valuable course
Was an informative session. Glad to have attended.
The ADHD training I recently received was very good and was an eye opener for me in so many ways including recognising a lot of symptoms that I and some of my family members have meeting the criteria for ADHD diagnosis. The training was delivered in a relaxed manner yet professional and effective, the trainer was very supportive and gave individual attention to learners as well as offering extra support to those who needed it. The training has since fuelled the desire to learn more about ADHD and to work with people who have or are suspected to have ADHD.
GREAT AWARENESS
Very insightful
Incredible course. Fantastic approach from The trainer and the team.
Excellent, in depth course.
Great course, loved the practice DIVA assessment section, it definitely improved my confidence. The trainer was very helpful and informative as well as keeping the course engaging. Looking forward to the course on treatment if ADHD!
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 well structured and organised. The presenters were great as they were easy to interactive with and had good understanding of the topic.
Lovely trainer, well delivered
Very good informative training
The course was excellent, The trainer is very knowledgeable and explains things well. I highly recommend to those who want a deeper understanding of ADHD and ADHD medication
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.
Very impactful and interesting course. Dr Pav was excellent in teaching and patient in his interactions with us. I learnt more about adhd and now will be able to help and support my patients better in their health journeys. Overall, it's an excellent experience I had throughout the times of studies. Thank you Dr Pav and his entire professional teams.
Interesting and informative course which has increased my understanding of ADHD, DIVA assessment and diagnosis based on DSM-5 criteria and guidelines.

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.
