Clarity on Learning Strengths and Challenges
A Psychoeducational Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of an individual’s cognitive, academic, and social-emotional functioning. It includes testing for social, emotional and behavioural concerns, executive functioning, and learning skills, and provides a detailed report with diagnoses (if applicable) and personalized support strategies and recommendations.
Assessment results and recommendations can be shared with schools or post-secondary institutions to support with accommodations, additional services, learning needs/disabilities, and the development of an Individualized Program Plan (IPP).
