Finding a Good Evaluator: What Education and Training do Evaluators Have?

If your child needs a psycho-educational evaluation, the examiner should have a master’s or doctoral degree in education, clinical psychology, or school psychology. If your child needs a neuropsychological evaluation, the evaluator will have a doctoral degree in psychology and training in neuropsychology. Evaluators should:

  • have the credentials required by the laws of your state
  • be trained according to the requirements of test publishers
  • be willing to answer questions about their education, training, and experience

You should check references and review credentials.

Learn more about evaluator qualifications on page. 4, Chapter 1: So You Think Your Child Needs and Evaluation? in Wrightslaw: All About Tests and Assessments.
