A few of our frequently asked questions about this course
Global ADHD Network provides CPD-certified ADHD and autism training designed for healthcare professionals. Our courses combine evidence-based teaching, practical clinical skills and recognised assessment methods to help clinicians build confidence in diagnosing and supporting adults with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
According to NICE Guideline NG87, ADHD assessments should be carried out by a suitably qualified healthcare professional with the appropriate knowledge, training and clinical competencies. Our ADHD assessor training is designed to help clinicians develop these assessment skills alongside recognised clinical approaches.
You'll learn how to assess adults with ADHD using recognised clinical approaches, including DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, DIVA-5 assessment methods, case discussions and evidence-based assessment techniques. The course combines theory with practical learning to prepare clinicians for real-world assessments.
Our ADHD training courses are designed for healthcare professionals, including psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, occupational therapists, GPs and other clinicians involved in neurodevelopmental assessments. Participants remain responsible for ensuring they meet the professional requirements relevant to their role.
The ADHD Assessor Training Course is delivered over one full day (approximately 8 hours) through live online training via Microsoft Teams. The programme includes interactive teaching, practical discussions, mock assessments and a live Q&A session.
On successful completion, participants receive recognised CPD certification that supports their continuing professional development. The course focuses on developing clinical knowledge and practical assessment skills for healthcare professionals.
Completing this course provides you with the knowledge and practical skills to assess adults with ADHD using recognised clinical approaches. However, whether you can independently carry out ADHD assessments depends on your professional qualifications, scope of practice and the regulatory requirements that apply to your role. Healthcare professionals are responsible for ensuring they meet all relevant clinical, legal and professional standards before providing assessment services.
Absoloute brilliant course, really enjoyed the structure and how interactive it was. The trainer was very accessible and ensured every question was left answered. He provided great additional support and overall I am very happy with this introduction into ADHD as a pharmacist. I'd definitely want to pursue further into ADHD.

I currently work as an Advanced Nurse Practioner (prescriber) in Primary Care with a significant mental health case load.

Management session even more enjoyable than diagnosis session!

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.
