a very well structured course
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.
A great Course well lead
Fantastic engaging information course presented in an affable encouraging manner.
Invaluable and informative day. A detailed analysis of the methodology of using medication in supporting patients with ADHD.
I benefited so much from the two courses completed with Private ADHD. Both have been brilliant at equipping me with a robust and detailed knowledge base on the diagnostic criteria, process of assessment and qualifications to be able to assess ADHD (in addition to Autism and Dyslexia) within an MDT - and with detailed insight into medication and management of ADHD, essential to the services I provide as a Neuroaffirming Consultant and Mentor: pre and post diagnostic support to individuals of all ages, and to families and schools.
Comprehensive course with a good balance of core material and activities which generated opportunities for learning. Admin process from booking to receiving the material was smooth and efficient. Really helpful tips around career guidance.
I had a great experience in the course and have recommended a couple of friends for the course.
Incredibly interesting and informative. Clear instructions on how to interpret and provide ADHD diagnoses and examples of this. I feel that I have a much clearer understanding to work with clients moving forward
Very good course structure and has given me a greater insight to ADHD and diagnostics
I learned so much from this training even in the first 10 minutes of starting, so I immediately felt like I was in good hands. I feel well-equipped to start assessing people for ADHD and I can't thank you enough for how easy the training was to follow and I'm so impressed by your knowledge. Thank you!
Very informative and interesting!

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.
quite informative

Very informative and helpful to understand on how to manage properly patient with ADHD and ADS , has been delivered in a comprehensive yet effective manner as there is a lot of information to take however it has been made more clearer .
