Beyond K-12
Looking for a learning evaluation for an adult, college student, or child outside of the traditional K-12 system? Our practice can provide custom evaluations designed to answer questions related to cognitive, academic, and executive functioning.
Every learning evaluation at Understanding Minds involves a thorough intake and follow-up process, including:
Collaborative clarification of goals for assessment
Personalized recommendations on evaluation procedures and format following intake, confirmed by clients before testing occurs. An estimate will be provided at this time regarding the anticipated length of time needed to complete the evaluation or recommended package elements. ***Please note that this is only an estimate, and the evaluation process may be shorter or longer depending on the needs of the client as our foremost goal is to obtain valid findings.***
Coordination by our admin team to ensure thoughtful scheduling, documentation, and communication with collateral reporters, such as parents, partners, and teachers
Comprehensive feedback with diagnoses and recommendations for supports at school and home
Post-evaluation follow-up to ensure your needs were met
