Why This Training Matters
Are you seeing more clients with suspected Autism or ADHD and want to improve your diagnostic skills? This comprehensive, self-paced course equips you with practical tools to confidently assess adults. Many adults with internalised or less stereotyped presentations go undiagnosed, and it's time for that to change.
