A psychoeducational assessment for adults provides valuable insight into cognitive abilities, academic skills, and social-emotional functioning. This type of assessment is essential for individuals experiencing specific learning disabilities, attention deficit disorders, or other challenges related to learning or executive functioning.
Whether you are a young adult in college or university, a professional in the workplace, or someone looking to better understand your learning profile, a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment can help identify strengths and areas for growth. At Edcommodate, we specialize in adult psychoeducational assessments for individuals in Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo, London, Woodstock, Guelph, Mississauga, Milton, St. Catharines, and Niagara.

- In-Depth Analysis: An adult psychoeducational assessment with Edcommodate examines cognitive abilities, academic achievement (reading, writing, mathematics), and social-emotional functioning.
- Accommodation and Modification: Our assessment process offers actionable plans for school accommodations in post-secondary education and accommodations for workplace settings. We’ll ensure you receive the support needed to reach your full potential.
Key Components of Our Psychoeducational Assessment Process
- Clinical Interviews: Interviews are conducted with the client to gain detailed information about their academic history and learning challenges, as well as medical history and any pre-existing health conditions.
- Document Review: As part of the psychological assessment, the psychologist will analyze personal and educational documentation, such as report cards and reports from previous mental health evaluations.
- Intellectual and Academic Testing: Our evaluations focus on measuring intellectual abilities, language skills, and academic functioning.
- Cognitive Tests: We assess clients’ executive functions, visual and verbal memory, problem-solving, and visual-motor integration.
Detailed Feedback and Support
Upon completion of the assessment process, clients receive a comprehensive report detailing findings and recommendations for accommodations. We provide a feedback session, typically 30 minutes to one hour, via phone or virtually, offering clear explanations and answering any queries about the psychoeducational assessment results and their implications.
Who Can Benefit From A Psychoeducational Assessment?
College & University Students
Students who are entering or struggling to adjust to post-secondary education could benefit from a psychoeducational assessment. To secure school accommodations, students must undergo a diagnostic psychoeducational assessment performed by a registered psychologist or psychological associate. Funding options such as the Bursary for Students with Disabilities (BSWD) and Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) may be available to support this process.
Professionals in the Workplace
Professionals requiring accommodations at work or for standardized exams (e.g., LSAT, MCAT) can also benefit from an adult psychoeducational assessment. These evaluations help Human Resources and Unions determine suitable job placements and ensure the right support in professional settings. Assessments may also provide insight into undiagnosed disorders, like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and other limitations in cognitive functioning that impact career progression.
