Coaching adults with ADHD is becoming more prevalent internationally since this skill is highly valuable for many professionals in their work. It helps increase awareness of adult ADHD and its effect on personal and professional lives. ADHD Malta, in its work to promote inclusion, organises these training courses that are beneficial to both local professionals and the ADHD community.

The coaching skills learnt can be applied in their current employment: better communication, identifying unique challenges and strengths, exploring options, and putting strategies or models to use. These will make participants more effective and supportive in their work with clients, students or patients, and enable them to learn how to work together more productively.

This is the fifth time ADHD adult coach Marie Enbäck from Sweden will be coming to Malta to deliver the MFHEA-accredited course in ADHD Adult Coaching Approach (MQF 5, ECTS 5) since 2017. There is also an introductory lecture on the local background of ADHD,  the NGO ADHD Malta and the current European situation of people living with ADHD to be delivered by co-lecturer Carola Stivala.
