Assessments

An assessment provides a comprehensive understanding of an individual strengths and weakness, and is capable to provide a accurate profiling of the examinee. It can be used to provide strategies and recommendations to parents, teachers and carers, as well as a diagnosis.

Each individual assessment has a specific goal to it:

The Autism Assessment aims to explore the person’s developmental profile to determinate whether they meet diagnostic criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD);

A Career Assessment supports the individual to identify their strengths and areas of positive outcome in their careers;

The Cognitive Assessment identifies the the cognitive and intellectual functioning of the examinee;

A Educational Assessment identifies the examinee’s learning profile and academic capacity.
