Class Is in Session! Diagnosing and Managing ADHD in Children and Young Adults

All Sessions Will Be Held in Eastern Time (ET)

This two-part CE program will examine attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) across key developmental stages, from early childhood through emerging adulthood. The first session will focus on building evidence-based foundations in pediatric ADHD, including accurate diagnosis, stimulant and non-stimulant treatment strategies, myth-busting around safety concerns, and collaborative, individualized care planning. The second session will address the transition to college and early adulthood, highlighting evolving clinical needs, executive-function support, safe prescribing practices, prevention of misuse or diversion, and strategies to ensure continuity of care during this critical period.
