Interesting and informative course
The course instructor was very knowledgeable. Overall the course was very high-quality however, I feel there could’ve been more time spent on the diva assessment and less in breakout rooms.
The trainer was extremely knowledgeable and patient. I feel much more able to work with clients with ADHD and able to pass on my own knowledge within the University I work in as well as with my supervisees in private practice. I highly recommend this course to anyone passionate about mental health and specifically working with ADHD =.

The Tutor was partiant and we would ask questions and he explained fully even after the training was over.

GREAT TEACHING
found the ADHD Assessor Course to be an incredibly valuable and well-structured training experience. It provided a comprehensive overview of ADHD assessment protocols, diagnostic criteria, and the practical skills required to conduct thorough and patient-centred evaluations. The content was evidence-based and clinically relevant, with a strong emphasis on both accuracy and empathy in the assessment process. The course facilitators were knowledgeable and approachable, offering real-world insights and support throughout. 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.
