Tics: Assessment and Formulation Training Day

Following the roll out of our teaching package for Behavioural Treatment for Tics, we recognise that clinicians working with young people presenting with tics have little access to comprehensive information around assessment and formulation.

In response to this, we have put together a one-day training package for clinicians who encounter young people with tics. Attendees of this training course will learn about distinguishing between Tourette Syndrome, Functional Tics and the overlap with other differentials, practice skills in using standardised assessment tools and work though case studies.

• The training will be most helpful for those who regularly encounter young people with tics in their clinical work or research posts.
• The course will include awareness and training using gold standard assessment measures, theoretical and practical training in assessment and formulation.
• The course contains excellent training videos, case study discussions, reference materials to use post-training and a certificate of attendance

Healthcare professionals from disciplines such as Psychology, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Speech and language therapy, Paediatrics, Psychiatry and Neurology. The training will be most helpful for those who regularly encounter young people with tics in their clinical work or research posts.

The cost for training is:

• £150 per individual
• Free for GOSH Staff. If you are claiming a GOSH Staff free ticket, please ensure you register with your GOSH email.

Please note that registration will close on Sunday 6 October 2024,10:00 BST.
