This has been informative.

A fabulous course about ADHD diagnosis which was fabulous, interesting, informative. I have learnt so much and very happy after today, so looking forward to the ADHD medication and management course in November

Fantastic training, comprehensive, well delivered course, was very engaging right through. Thank you

Good Course
I took part in the management of ADHD course. The learning provided me with a lot of knowledge on the different medications that are used to help manage symptoms of ADHD. the case studies allowed us to put this learning into practice which was really useful. Overall was a great course that has improved my knowledge on ADHD.
Good course
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 this course very useful in extending my knowledge, and hopefully helping towards me becoming an ADHD assessor
The course was exceptionally well-structured combining both theoretical knowledge and practical insights. It covered diagnostic tools , evidence-based interventions allowing me to deepen my understanding of ADHD’s complexities.
Very Interactive
Thoroughly enjoyed the course
A great comprehensive and concise course that gives you confidence to prescribe in ADHD. The teaching is very clear and easy to understand.
well structured and managed course
Amazing Training
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.
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.
Brilliant, loved it! thank you so much, it has really ignited my passion as a clinician.
A very useful course, tailored to suit just what I need when it comes to further knowledge in assessing and diagnosing ADHD
Really informative session , The trainer -knowledgeable speaker with relaxed teaching style, different learning methods offered, Vinod - helpful throughout the day, useful and helpful tips offered
I have attended the course which was led by The trainer, very informative and professional, had exercises in different rooms and shared so much knowledge and the facilitator (The trainer) was also involved making sure we understood the task expected.
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.
Excellent course delivered with confidence and professionalism. Can’t wait to get started although a little nervous
Amazing training, engaging and thorough
brilliant course, very informative
Very useful course, made it easier

ADHD Assessment Course
Was an informative session. Glad to have attended.
Very detailed and interesting course. I wish the break out rooms involved professionals from different work groups instead with different levels of experience. i.e. I was put with pharmacists and we all had the same level of experience.
Great Course , I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Educative and eye opening. Even emotional at times.
Fantastic course
Attending the ADHD Medication Management course has significantly enhanced my clinical confidence and prescribing competence when supporting individuals with ADHD. The course provided a comprehensive overview of pharmacological options, including stimulant and non-stimulant therapies, and offered practical strategies for monitoring treatment effectiveness and managing side effects. The evidence-based content, combined with real-world case discussions, has strengthened my ability to deliver safe, person-centred, and effective care. I would highly recommend this course to any healthcare professional involved in ADHD management."
The trainer delivered this brilliant course and he was able to answer our questions
I have learnt a lot of ADHD diagnostic and will be able to use it confidently.
The trainer's session was really informative, made be more confident in assessing and diagnosis of ADHD - I'm particularly interested in Management as a pharmacist but as NICE outlines pharmacists need to be able to confirm any given diagnosis. It has given me a great base understanding. Looking forward to continue learning and the management course next week
Very informative.

Very high informative and well structured. It provided a practical understanding of ADHD. It is highly recommended. I will be recommending Private ADHD to colleagues who may be interested in ADHD
Truly grateful for this course. It has been extremely beneficial and informative. I had concerns that it would be treated like a check box exercise but The trainer demonstrated so much time, care and passion. 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.
Thanks to The trainer and a brilliant delivery
The trainer,s reputation far exceeds him. He has mastery over the course and is an incredible teacher and someone to look up to. I totally enjoyed every bit of the of the training. I am super excited about launching my ADHD career both as an assessor and an educator.
