Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the course?
It depends what pathway you are choosing.
Practitioner is 10 weeks
Coach is 10 weeks
Advanced Coach is 10 weeks
Are there assignments and exams?
Yes, different levels have different requirements:
Practitioner level: Multiple choice exam (80% pass rate, open book)
Coach level: 30-minute coaching session recording
Advanced Coach level: Client case study
Support and retake opportunities are provided if needed.
What qualification will I receive when I complete the training?
Depending on the pathway you choose, you will earn officially accredited certifications:
-NTA Certified ADHD Practitioner: A 10-week foundational qualification carrying 180 CPD points.
-NTA Certified ADHD Coach: A 6-month programme carrying 180 CPD points + 40 ICF CCE (Continuing Coach Education) units.
-NTA Certified Advanced ADHD Coach: A comprehensive 12-month programme carrying 180 CPD points + 80 ICF CCE units.
Is the training ICF accredited, and will I become ICF accredited?
Yes, the Neurodiversity Training Academy is a recognised ICF CCE (Continuing Coach Education) provider.
-Completing the Advanced ADHD Coach pathway provides 80 ICF CCE units, which meet the educational hours required to apply for your individual ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential via the ICF Portfolio Pathway.
-Note: Individual ICF credentialing requires separate mentor coaching and ICF application fees, which can be arranged with NTA when you are ready to apply.
-In short, the course is ICF-accredited and gives you what you need to take the final step to become an ICF Associate Coach. But we can help you with that
Do I need previous coaching experience or qualifications to join?
No prior coaching experience or formal qualifications are required. The 12-month Advanced ADHD Coach pathway is explicitly designed for beginners who want to build competence and confidence from the ground up. (If you are already a certified coach, a streamlined pathway is available, allowing you to fast-track directly into the advanced modules).
Can I do the training alongside a full-time job and family commitments?
Yes. The training is designed to be adaptable and flexible for busy lives and neurodivergent schedules. All live teaching calls are recorded and posted to the student portal by the following day so you can catch up in your own time. Additionally, optional evening practice sessions on Monday nights (6:00–7:30 pm UK time) allow working professionals to complete their live practice requirements outside regular working hours.
How much time do I need to commit each week?
-Module 1 (ADHD Practitioner): Live classes run twice a week (Wednesdays & Fridays, 11:00 am – 12:50 pm UK time), totalling 4 hours of live instruction per week.
-Modules 2 & 3 (Coach & Advanced Coach): Live teaching runs once a week (Tuesdays for Coach, Thursdays for Advanced Coach, 11:00 am – 2:00 pm UK time). You should also budget 1.5 hours per week for peer practice sessions and self-study workbooks.
Do I need to attend every session live?
Not every single session.
For Module 1 (ADHD Practitioner), live attendance is encouraged but all sessions are fully recorded for flexible viewing.
For the ICF CCE modules (Coach & Advanced Coach), an 80% live attendance mark is required for accreditation. However, if work prevents you from attending a daytime call, you can watch the recording and attend the Monday evening practice call (6:00 pm – 7:30 pm UK time) to fulfil your attendance and practice requirements.
Do I get a certificate upon completion?
Yes you will get a certificate upon completion of each course.
Can I interact with the instructors?
Yes there will be a Q&A opportunity within each live training session.
How much coursework is involved, and how am I assessed?
Assessments are practical, supportive, and designed to test real-world competence rather than overwhelm you:
ADHD Practitioner: An open-book online multiple-choice examination (80% pass mark, retakes allowed).
ADHD Coach: Submission of a recorded 30-minute client coaching session for evaluation, weekly peer coaching practice, and 80% attendance.
Advanced ADHD Coach: Submission of a straightforward 1,500-word client case study based on a fictional scenario, plus weekly peer practice and 80% attendance.
What if I don’t have anyone to coach for my practice hours?
You don't need to find outside clients right away! The Academy provides structured weekly peer coaching practice where you are paired with fellow cohort members. You will coach each other during live breakout rooms and optional practice sessions, giving you a diverse array of hands-on coaching experience in a safe, supportive environment.
Will you help me start my coaching business and find clients?
Yes! Business development is a central pillar of the NTA curriculum. The training includes:
Dedicated modules on identifying your niche, setting prices, creating coaching packages, and signing your first 5 clients.
Guidance on navigating UK government Access to Work client funding.
6 hours of business development group coaching.
An In-Person Business Development & Celebration Day (held in Surrey) to finalise your business strategy.
A listing on the NTA Expert Directory upon graduation.
Access to the NTA Business Suite software for turn-key website and client management setup - this is a paid service.
What can I do with the qualification once I’ve completed the training?
Graduates can build a private 1-to-1 or group ADHD coaching practice, work as an ADHD mentor or consultant, deliver corporate neurodiversity workshops, support Access to Work clients, or apply their skills within HR, education, healthcare, or corporate leadership roles. All qualified graduates can also be featured on the NTA public directory.
I’m already a coach, counsellor, therapist or other professional. Is this training suitable for me?
Absolutely. Many NTA students are existing coaches, HR leaders, therapists, counsellors, nurses, or medical professionals looking for formal, accredited ADHD training. If you are already a professionally certified coach, NTA offers an Existing Coach Pathway that allows you to complete the Practitioner module and jump straight to the Advanced Coach level.
Please note this is only available to ICF Accredited ACC Coaches
How much does the training cost, and are payment plans available?
Yes, flexible payment plans are available across all tracks:
-ADHD Practitioner Only (10 weeks): £3,500 (Paid in Full).
-ADHD Coach (6 months, includes Practitioner): £5,500 (Paid in Full) or 10 monthly payments of 595 a month.
