Executive functioning training program

What is executive functioning?
Executive functions are best understood as an umbrella
term including a number of interrelated skills which are
necessary for completing goals. These abilities include
focused and sustained attention, planning, organisation,
problem solving, utilising feedback and flexible thinking. The
dysexecutive syndrome has symptoms of poor planning and
organization, difficulties with generating and implementing
strategies for problem solving, perseveration (repeating an
incorrect response repeatedly), inability to correct errors
using feedback, and rigid or concrete thought processes.
Qualitative features of executive dysfunction may include
poor self-control, impulsivity, erratic careless responses,
poor initiation, and inflexibility.

Our training program
There are 2 stages to the training program.
(1) Environmental interventions
This involves changing external situations to reduce the
negative effects of weak executive skills

This involves changing your child's capacity for using their
own executive skills.

These interventions include training in teaching your child
executive skills, as well as designing incentive systems.
The program includes training in response inhibition,
working memory, sustained attention, task initiation,
