Assessment is generally conducted over 2-4 sessions, so that students do not become fatigued.
Considerable time is spent analyzing each’s student’s testing performance to provide detailed results.
This compilation of results forms the basis for specific recommendations for parents, teachers and other staff involved in the student’s education plan.
The written report is delivered 3-5 weeks after testing is completed.
A one-hour meeting with parents/guardians is included in the cost of assessment and is scheduled to discuss the results of the evaluation, effective interventions, resources & recommendations.
