Executive Functions: Connecting into Practice – online course for Educational Psychologists

This online self-paced course will guide you through the layers of understanding the concept of executive functions, how we assess those skills and bring it together in a formulation that makes sense.

The course lead Dr Rebecca Ashton is an experienced educational psychologist working in neuropsychology. She has a wealth of experience working with executive functioning issues in school casework and is excited to be sharing her knowledge and understanding in this area.

The course is in an eLearning format which can be taken at your own pace (does not need to be competed on the above date), and used as a reference guide to come back to over time. It also includes a host of useful resources which can be utilised in your practice, reflective activities to facilitate your learning, and a space for the EP community to ask questions and share thoughts between us.

‘Great guide to assessment, formulation and sharing understanding with others, as well as strategies for intervention at differing levels, and delivered by experts in their fields’ – Review by Kate L, Ed Psych

‘A course that develops EPs knowledge and understanding of EF’s but also how to translate and use this for effective interventions at individual child, parent, whole class and systemic levels. Not to forget becoming more aware of my own EF strengths and weaknesses. Thank you! – Review by Joanne W, Ed Psych
