What to expect

A skill session event brings together like-minded professionals to learn about a particular disability or neurodiversity from experts. As well as training from a qualified external provider, you'll also:

Learn from inspiring speakers

Each skill session event will kick off with a talk from a speaker who has lived experience of the topic we are learning about for the day.

Network with your peers

We're bringing together everyone in the industry to share ideas, exchange knowledge, and do some good old fashioned networking. Forget webinars: in-person conversations are where it's at!

Get CPD certification

Everyone attending the event will be provided with CPD certification after the training - a great way to ensure you are enhancing your professional skill set.

Enjoy breakfast, lunch, and a party!

Attendees can expect pastries on arrival, a delicious hot lunch to fuel you through the afternoon, plus free drinks at the after party.

Training content

Training will be delivered by the ADHD Foundation, the largest provider of training in ADHD and neurodevelopmental conditions for professionals in the UK. During the session, you can expect to learn what ADHD is (and what it isn’t) and strategies to support ADHD in the workplace.

Expect to cover topics like:

diagnosis
comorbidities
emotional dysregulation
mental health vulnerabilities
considerations for line managers
