			<h3>Audience</h3>

			<p>This workshop is designed for allied health professionals, including Occupational Therapists, Psychologists, Speech Pathologists, Physiotherapists, Social Workers, and rehabilitation practitioners. It is particularly relevant for those supporting children and young people whose executive functioning challenges affect engagement, learning, and participation in daily activities.</p>

			<h3>Course Description</h3>

			<p>Executive functioning underpins key skills such as planning, organisation, working memory, flexibility, and self-regulation. When difficulties emerge, they can significantly affect a child&rsquo;s ability to learn, form relationships, and manage everyday demands.</p>

			<p>This workshop provides allied health professionals with a structured framework for assessing executive functioning in children and teens. Participants will learn to use a range of assessment tools, including the BRIEF, Brown Scales, and task observations, while considering the influence of interoception, cognition, sensory processing, anxiety, learning preferences, and family context.</p>

			<p>The session explores practical intervention approaches that can be applied across therapy, home, school, and community settings. Strategies include visuals, reminders, environmental modifications, co-regulation, and collaborative goal setting. The workshop emphasises engaging families and educators to ensure strategies are meaningful, generalised, and sustainable.</p>

			<h3>Learning Outcomes</h3>

			<p>By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:</p>

			<ul>
				<li>Define executive functioning and recognise common challenges for children and teens, including difficulties with task initiation, organisation, working memory, planning, flexibility, and impulse control.</li>
				<li>Identify suitable assessment tools, such as BRIEF, Brown Scales, and task observations, to assess executive functioning needs.</li>
				<li>Understand how individual factors&mdash;such as interoception, cognition, sensory processing, anxiety, learning preferences, and family or school context&mdash;shape executive functioning profiles.</li>
				<li>Develop intervention strategies that target executive functioning skills across therapy, home, school, and community environments.</li>
				<li>Apply practical tools and adaptive supports, including visuals, reminders, environmental modifications, and co-regulation approaches, to enhance participation and success in daily activities.</li>
				<li>Collaborate with children, families, and schools in goal setting and intervention planning to promote strategy generalisation and long-term independence.</li>
			</ul>

			<p>ADHD is a complex impairment that impacts academic, social, emotional, and behavioural development for both children and adults.

			<h3>What makes Brown EF/A Scales different?</h3>

			<p><strong>Helps address situational variability</strong>: The clinical presentation of ADHD is generally variable, the symptoms are situational, and the degree to which a patient exhibits them may be observed and interpreted differently by various observers.1&nbsp;The Brown EF/A scales will provide a comprehensive evaluation of an individual&#39;s ADHD symptoms by analysing their behaviour using multiple perspectives: the examinee&#39;s self-perspective, teacher&#39;s perspective and parents&#39; perspective.</p>

			<p><strong>Items are more specific and contextual:&nbsp;</strong>Patients with ADHD experience situational variability and have the ability to focus on certain activities which hold strong interest for them. The Brown EF/A scales will include items that are more specific and ask about difficulties they might encounter in a specific context, e.g. difficulty remembering what has been read (when reading is assigned, not self-selected texts).</p>

			<p><strong>Focus on severity as opposed to frequency:</strong>&nbsp;The items on the Brown EF/A scales, unlike other instruments will focus on the severity of specific behaviours as opposed to frequency. This will allow examinees to directly and more accurately report symptoms they perceive to be problems.</p>

			<p><strong>Includes DSM-5 symptoms of ADHD and more:</strong>&nbsp;In addition to diagnostic criteria for ADHD defined in DSM-5, the Brown EF/A scales also assess other important aspects of executive function impairments found in persons with ADHD, but not yet included in DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for ADD/ADHD.</p>

			<h3>Videos</h3>

			<p><strong>Case Examples Using the new Brown EF/A Scales with various Age Groups and Comorbidities</strong><br />
			This webinar will use case examples of children, teens and adults to illustrate how these newly updated and re-normed scales can be used for screening and/or in comprehensive clinical evaluations for ADHD and related problems of executive function. Dr. Brown, author of these scales, will explain how the total composite score shows the likelihood of an individual having significant executive function/attention impairments often associated with ADHD. He will also describe how the six cluster scores can help to provide a profile of specific impairments that may be prioritised and targeted for treatment. This webinar is designed for psychologists and other mental health and medical professionals.<br />

			<p><strong>New Brown Executive Function/Attention Scales: Theory and Clinical Applications for Assessing ADHD</strong><br />
			This webinar presented by Dr. Thomas E. Brown, author of these new updated and re-normed EF/A scales, will describe how these scales move beyond current DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for ADHD to elicit important information about six critical executive functions that underlie symptoms of ADHD and related problems. A discussion will describe how these age-normed scales can be used to screen easily for possible ADHD impairments and as a valuable instrument for use in clinical assessment and monitoring of treatment for children, teenagers and adults with ADHD-related impairments.<br />
