A truly highly recommendable program
Even after 8 years I'm still happy that I came across this program on the internet. The training was a lot of fun and I felt well supported throughout when questions came up despite the clarity of the materials. I especially liked the forum, where none of my questions went unanswered. The fantastic ongoing support after graduation is also worth mentioning. Constantly new continuing-education offerings and the manifold training options the association provides are still a delight. The only thing is, in the pedagogical area I would sometimes have liked a bit more information on didactics, since I come from a medical background and had no prior knowledge in this area before the course. But with practice and personal interest, that's manageable too. So all in all, a successful continuing-education offering. Thank you for that.
Thank you for your constructive feedback! We are very pleased to inform you that a continuing education module specifically for didactics will soon be available free of charge in the online customer center.
Warm regards,
Your Dyslexia Trainer Certificate Program Team
Review of the program
I find the course very well organized — you can study and take exams at your own pace! If you have questions, you get quick answers! The materials are clear, and the choice of exam methods suits different learning types well! The only shortcoming I experienced was that, despite great efforts on my part, I couldn't find anyone whose sessions I could 'sit in on' before my own practice hours — I would have very much liked that! But otherwise I find the course genuinely enriching! The quick assessment and dispatch of the diploma is also very well organized, in my view! I would recommend this course any time!
ADA dyslexia certification — quality and service
The course offering is not only of excellent quality in terms of content and practical applicability, but the services provided by the umbrella association are also fast, comprehensive, well structured and superbly organized. I have never taken any training before in which the value delivered so far exceeded what I paid.
Simply top
Great and individual communication and support. An enrichment for anyone who works with children.
Very satisfied
Anyone who wants to professionally help children affected by dyslexia is in good hands with this course. The workload was manageable for me without difficulty. The learning content is easy to implement in my work with children and shows results. I can wholeheartedly recommend both the 'Certified Dyslexia Trainer' course and the advanced 'Certified Dyscalculia Trainer' course.
Review
The materials are easy to understand and very helpful. The open methodology means you always have the option to try out additional methods and integrate them into your overall approach as needed. That makes an individual approach possible.
High quality, good support for questions... any time again
I began my certification as a certified dyscalculia and dyslexia trainer with ADA in 2010. The study materials provided and the required reading are very well prepared and can be worked through alongside family and work, while still providing the best information. Many continuing-education offerings on dyslexia or — even more so — on dyscalculia only illuminate one side; multiaxial diagnostics are often not considered... The course gave me a secure foundation and a good start. The many continuing-education options at ADA subsequently provide the current state of knowledge and the ongoing learning that is essential in every field involving work with people!
Dyslexia trainer certification
In January I received my certified dyslexia trainer diploma after eight months of study. The study period was very pleasant — especially the presence of the trainers and the entire team was very supportive and helpful. I can warmly recommend this course.
Review
It is so wonderful that you exist. Without you no children could get training. It is sooooo good that you exist. Thank you.
It is definitely worth it!
The content is really good and the work with the children takes on a new quality. Children with reading and writing difficulties also benefit from the course, since you develop a better eye for the sources of mistakes and the symptoms. The customer center website could be a bit clearer; it takes some time before you really find your way around.
The course was very practical and helpful!
It is now over 4 years since I completed the course. It moved me forward professionally. From my perspective, it is one of the best approaches that exists internationally in this field. It's a pity that no master's degree for specialists has been built on it.
Dyslexia certification — very good
The extensive learning materials were very well and clearly structured, so that the connections were conveyed clearly. Whenever I had questions, I was always given prompt, helpful and very friendly support. Thanks to the intensive preparation for practice, even that hurdle was easy to clear. I was — and still am — very glad to have learned about ADA and completed this program. It complemented my other prior training and rounded out and eased the ways I can help.

A really great program... The support and the content of the course are really very good. I can recommend this course without hesitation...
Broadening of horizons
A good 10 years ago now I completed the dyslexia course. I devoured the content and felt strongly affirmed in what I was doing, including as a mother of an affected child. For me it is important to advise and help other affected people competently. Right after the dyslexia trainer I immediately added the dyscalculia trainer (there I would have liked a bit more guidance for the practical side). Overall the information was sufficient for me back then as an entry point into a very broad subject. What was clear to me even during the course, though, was that there could be no standstill of knowledge afterwards. So even today I'm constantly looking for further, deeper or more advanced knowledge in the form of courses or continuing education. It's a topic that must never stand still. What is unfortunately covered less intensively in this course is the topic of adult dyslexia/dyscalculia. Otherwise the course is very well suited for anyone who wants to engage with this subject and can and wants to schedule their study time flexibly. That's what I liked very much about it. Also the quick replies to questions or implementation difficulties. The 'continuing-education options' via the subscription are also nice and interesting. For me the course was the springboard into a meaningful additional activity outside my main job.
Dyscalculia trainer course
Easy to combine with everyday work, clear modules, manageable timeframe.
Review of the dyslexia trainer training
The training as a certified dyslexia trainer, completed in 4 learning modules, was very informative and practice-oriented thanks to the well-organized theoretical learning block and the didactic instructions. Competent course support rounded off this interesting training, which I very much like to recommend.
Great program!
I'm very satisfied — everything worked out very well. I can only recommend this training!
Competent advice... solid course!
Beautifully structured from A to Z! All questions were promptly and competently answered! After this course I feel ready to work with the children!!
Dyslexia/dyscalculia trainer
The training was outstanding. Great support! Happy to recommend.
Info and review of the program
I rate the organization, the content conveyed, and the consistently excellent specialist support during the course as very good. Subject-related questions were always answered in detail and promptly. The scripts are excellent and are constantly updated with new research findings. Keep it up, ADA!! Yours, Bernhard Hötting, certified dyslexia and dyscalculia trainer.
