FAQ

  • What's the difference between the ADHD & AuDHD Coaching Courses at ADHD Works?

    Our ADHD Coaching course covers the foundation of coaching neurodivergent people and starting your coaching practice, using our Executive Functioning Coaching Framework. Our Advanced AuDHD Coaching Course builds on these skills, and is designed for those already coaching professionally. We'll train you on our AuDHD Paradox Coaching Framework, covering areas such as PDA & Alexithymia.

  • Why is this the first ever AuDHD Coaching Course?

    Autism and ADHD have only been able to be diagnosed in the same person since 2013, but there's a 50-70% crossover in symptoms. Whilst neurodiversity is as natural as biodiversity, diagnostic criteria is man-made. This means that thousands of people have gone without the holistic support and understanding they need to work with their brains, instead of against them. ADHD Works has already trained over 4500 coaches around the world on our Executive Functioning Coaching Framework with great success and impact - so this is a continuation!

  • Which coach training course should I start with?

    We strongly recommend starting with our 'Become an ADHD Coach' course, which will train you on the foundations of setting up a coaching practice tailored towards neurodivergent people. Our Advanced AuDHD Coaching course has a stronger focus on the neuroscience and integration of the AuDHD Paradox Coaching Framework into your existing practice. We run ADHD and AuDHD training cohorts every few months - message us to join the waiting list for the next one!

  • Who is this course for?

    Coaches who want to harness their skills to confidently and effectively support people navigating ADHD and autism, using neuro-affirmative practices and frameworks.

  • How much experience or what qualifications do I need?

    We ask for some coaching experience in a professional capacity, and/or certification, along with a basic understanding of neurodiversity, to make sure you can fully engage with the advanced course content and fast-paced, neuro-affirming environment. Ideally, you'd have already learned the foundations of coaching neurodivergent people on our 'Become an ADHD Coach Course.'

  • What funding options are available?

    If you'd like your employer to help fund this, feel free to drop us a message on [email protected] for a free template you can use. We also run a scholarship programme for every cohort - visit our website to find out more.

  • What will I get from this course?

    A complete library of lessons, worksheets, and session outlines to confidently coach AuDHD-ers, and 6 x 2 hour live training sessions (also recorded and uploaded). You'll also be featured on ADHD Works' dedicated AuDHD Coach Directory and receive a licence to use your AuDHD Coach Certification in your own marketing materials, along with a certificate to demonstrate your expertise.

  • What oversight is in place?

    ADHD Works is a training provider member of both the Association for Coaching and CPD. We prioritise integrity, ethics, and high standards, ensuring that our frameworks support both coaches and the people they work with. Upon certification, you'll be featured on our coaching directory, which is an excellent way to connect with a wide range of clients, including those accessing services through organisations like Access to Work (ATW). This course is designed to equip you with the skills and credibility to work confidently in the AuDHD coaching space, backed by a commitment to excellence.

  • How do I qualify and complete the course?

    The course runs over 6 weeks, with weekly 2 hour group training sessions. These are held at specific times on Wednesdays at 9am, 12pm or 5pm, and you will only need to attend one. They are also recorded in case you can’t make any. You can complete the online lessons at your own pace, with lifetime access to all course materials. At the end of the live training period, you’ll complete an assessment to demonstrate your skills. You'll receive feedback and be fully prepared to become a certified AuDHD coach. Afterward, you’ll receive your certificate and be featured on the ADHD Works website as a certified AuDHD Coach for 1 year.
