Clinical Advances and Controversies in ADHD - Conference Program: https://publuu.com/flip-book/245960/588427
In recent years, ADHD has gained prominence in both clinical and community awareness. As clinicians, we need to be better informed and equipped with practical skills to treat ADHD, but it can be hard to know where to start.
This conference brings together world experts in ADHD, who will present the cutting-edge research and latest guidelines for treatment for children and adults with ADHD.
- Day 1 will focus on presenting best evidence-based practice in the complexity of presentations of ADHD.
- Day 2 comprises two hands-on workshops providing clinicians with practical skills in assessment and strategies to walk away with confidence in working with people with ADHD, including presentations with complexity and comorbidity.
Join us in the iconic, majestic atmosphere of The Windsor Hotel for a two day conference with Gala Dinner to network and celebrate with friends and colleagues.
