A learning assessment is a cognitive assessment and academic assessment administered together. A cognitive assessment is a standardised assessment used to evaluate one's intellectual abilities, including but not limited to verbal reasoning, visual-spatial reasoning, fluid reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. An academic assessment is a standardised assessment used to evaluate one's academic skills in areas of listening comprehension, oral expression, reading, mathematics, and written expression. We offer formal learning assessments for individuals aged 6-18.

What is a learning assessment

Evaluating cognitive and academic strengths and weaknesses
Determining whether one's academic skills are consistent with their cognitive abilities (i.e., "performing to potential")
Evaluating whether one has a specific learning disorder such as dyslexia or dyscalculia, and appropriate supports
Identifying whether one presents with intellectual giftedness and therefore appropriate considerations
Evaluating one's cognitive abilities and academic skills to assist with transition to high school
