Educational Testing

Results obtained from psycho-educational and psychological testing are helpful to identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses, and to help develop academic interventions. Testing can also yield information to help confirm or disconfirm mental health diagnoses, such as developmental delay or attention disorders. Testing can also provide information helpful in determining intellectual giftedness.

For teens and adults, assessment can provide information regarding personal interests and career preferences. This is useful in career planning, making a transition to a new line of work, and in job searches.

By using formal and informal assessment tools, we can provide useful information about:

  • development
  • cognitive ability (intellectual functioning)
  • current levels of academic achievement
  • learning style
  • memory
  • behavior
  • social and emotional functioning
  • clarity on mental health issues
  • interests and career preferences
