LDA Minnesota

Did you know that students need to be enrolled in Adult Basic Education for only 2-3 months before LDA Minnesota will conduct a Learning Assessment? The purpose of this short waiting period after enrollment is to assure that the student is committed to his or her academic goals and to allow teachers some time to get to know how the student learns. The waiting period is only a guideline, however, so if you have a new student you believe would benefit from immediate testing, please call us at 952-582-6000.

All LDA Minnesota Assessments provide:

• Self-understanding of cognitive and achievement strengths and weaknesses
• Recommendations to more closely match instruction with the learner’s pattern of strengths and weaknesses
• The goal of an assessment is to clearly identify the existence and evaluate the impact of a neurological (from birth) or acquired (from brain injury) learning disability, attention deficit, or other learning difficulty. A comprehensive assessment includes not only standardized test results and interpretation, but also history, observation, and analysis of the functional limitations of a learning difficulty on the adult’s performance in school, work, and life.
