A personal story, scaled
While studying at university Chris was diagnosed with dyslexia.
The experience of completing a cognitive assessment was genuinely transformative for Chris. It gave him a framework to understand how he thinks and learns as an individual.
But like many people, he was understandably frustrated that he had to wait until university to get it.
When he was growing up, no one was talking about neurodiversity and he had to figure coping strategies on his own.
With a new understanding of his cognition, Chris built a variety of strategies to use in the working world that have helped him reach the highest levels of success.
But Chris knew there would be people like himself with hidden needs and people who may not yet have the cognitive tools to work towards their strengths.
Everyone deserves the opportunity to understand this vital part of who they are and work in an environment that helps them to thrive at every level of education and work.
Our diversity is our greatest asset.
And from that idea, Cognassist was born.
