Autism Assessments – Diagnostic and Review
These autism assessments – also known as diagnostic assessments – can determine whether someone has autism. They’re also useful for individuals who have previously been diagnosed with autism but are now wanting an updated assessment and additional information. These are also known as review assessments and are useful to help individuals with funding applications or support planning.
Cognitive Assessments
Cognitive assessments help to determine an individual’s learning capability. They identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses, and can assist with the development of individualized support and learning plans.
