AD/HD in the College Setting

Audience: College Students
Length: 1 ½ to 2 hour sessions twice a week for 3 weeks
Fee: $125 per student + $10 for a Planning Journal

Overview: All college and university students are in the classrooms to learn, yet it seems that so many of them are not prepared for the organization and self-control they will need to complete their work and maintain the grades needed to move forward and graduate.

This 3-week course is an intense understanding of their own AD/HD and what it means to live and learn with a mind that can be so scattered yet so brilliant. Each class becomes a hands-on learning skill, using a planning journal, Plan For Success, as the class text. Students learn to work with their syllabus, plan long and short-term assignments and coordinate it all through the use of the planning journal and worksheets.

Please note: This course can be offered several times throughout the year.
