Each psycho-educational assessment takes approximately six to eight hours to complete and can only be performed by a registered psychologist. During the assessment, intellectual functioning, learning style, memory, coordination and academic and language skills will be measured, in addition to testing for other potential factors like learning disabilities, attentional or behavioural disorders.
Psycho-educational assessments help to:
- Identify gifted individuals, and learning styles;
- Diagnose learning disabilities, ADHD, social adjustment difficulties, and emotional issues;
- Provide assistance choosing schools, and academic programs;
- Improve study habits, and exam preparation skills.
