I really enjoyed this course and I am looking forward to becoming proficient in the use of diagnostic assessments...

Wonderful training. I felt rather anxious on day one with limited knowledge of ADOS/ADI application, however Carol made everyone feel comfortable with the content and material irrespective of existing knowledge and experience. This helped to develop confidence in application in assignments.

Carol, many thanks for your detailed presentation. Style and pace just right. The moodle allows for easy access of the materials and it has been straightforward to log in and navigate. I think there was a good balance between independent learning and then the opportunity to come together for specific feedback and pointers. Good quality videos. Wonderful that the resources are to be made available for a time period after the course for continued learning, feedback and practice - thank you! Looking forward to actually putting the learning into clinical practice now.

I am delighted to have attended this course, both for its good organisation and for the professionals who carried it out, who were always friendly and willing to answer our questions.

I had waited long for a training like this. While I was in India, I couldn't manage the timings for any such courses then. Now as I recently moved to the UK, this was the first thing I did to complete my training on such assessments. Fortunate to get a space at the earliest as well. Carol Stott was amazing. I felt like a one to one session on all days. Her concepts were very clear. Thanks to Garry as well for intimating the space on the waiting list. I feel so satisfied and worth spending my time all these 5 days.

This was a fabulous course, 5 days I learnt a lot and practiced various scenarios. I still have 6 months available and will practice the other videos provided. Great trainer Carol and the course organiser Gary. They were ever so patient, kind and made things clear at every stage and for every question. Thank you Gary and Carol.

The course was professionally delivered and the fact that it was online made it far more accessible to me than it would have been had I had to attend a venue for it. One of the downsides of this is the lack of engagement with other professionals. However for me personally I found it strongly helped my attention and focus and I felt more in control of my own learning environment. Altogether a really positive experience.

Really enjoyed the week. It is a very informative course and gave me plenty of opportunities to code assessments. Loved the assessments, the assessors were god role models and the kids / young people were great. The course works well on Zoom and the flexibility fits well with a working day. I was able to do some tasks in the evening. Carol is very experienced and makes the content clear. She is very good with participants asking lots of questions. Gary is great navigating and showing us where to access things on the platform. I appreciated having the pack sent so I had something physical to work with and I have been able to purchase the ADOS manual for further reading and as a resource

The best online course that I have ever attended!

Thank you very much for a very insightful (and slightly full on) week.
