This session introduces the CAT-MH®, a suite of mental health assessments for administration and scoring on Q-global®. Clinicians can use the CAT-MH® in place of lengthy clinical interviews to efficiently assess the mental and behavioral health of their clients across nine crucial domains including Depression, Anxiety, and Suicidality. CAT-MH® combines computer adaptive testing with multidimensional item response theory to provide highly validated, precise, personalized assessments that take minutes, not hours.
Discover how this groundbreaking tool is transforming mental health assessment—giving you faster, more precise insights that benefit both your clients and your practice. You'll learn about the science behind CAT-MH® and see it in action during a live demonstration.
Are you starting a new practice as a private practitioner, or do you work in a small group practice with a singular focus like speech therapy, mental health, or learning disabilities? This webinar is an overview of the new Digital Assessment Library for Healthcare licenses and what the benefits mean for practitioners and their businesses.

This webinar will discuss how and why administering both WAIS-5 and WMS-5 as part of a comprehensive evaluation (and integrating their results) can help you draw more and better conclusions from your evaluations. After reviewing the flexibility of WMS-5 administration and how to determine the most appropriate option for a given evaluation, we will look at the functional areas covered by pairing the WMS-5 with the WAIS-5 and how integrating and comparing scores from the two measures can enhance interpretation of your clients’ overall functioning.
