The Cognassist assessment is an all-in-one cognition measurement, reporting and evidencing tool. Designed by neuropsychologists and educational practitioners, it is the only assessment to output a clinical standardised report for educators and authorities, as well as a consumer-friendly report for learners and employees.

Using the Cognassist digital assessment is 99% less costly than completing a formal diagnostic process. This drastically reduced cost per assessment allows organisations to implement cognitive screening at scale at a fraction of the anticipated cost.
Auto flags and creates evidence packs for any identified needs.
Seamlessly integrate into your existing workflow. The assessment can be completed alone or with a SENCO in approximately 30minutes.
A JCQ (Joint Council for Qualifications) compliant digital cognitive assessment tool that includes integrity monitoring.

A clinical standardised assessment report means the scoring used enables a direct comparison of the individual against a standardised group of their peers.
This level of robust scoring is essential to evidence a learning difficulty or disability (LDD) and provide evidence to support claims for additional funding.
The cognassist assessment measures nine cognitive domains. The robust scoring across these domains is used to design and deliver reasonable adjustments for both learning and at assessment.
All clinical scores are presented using standardised scores and includes measurements on three indexes for thinking and learning, nine cognitive domains and the learner’s speed of working.
Cognassist’s unique consumer-friendly report avoids standardised scores, instead presenting results in an engaging and positive manner. It helps the reader understand where the individual has cognitive strengths as well as areas of processing that they may find slightly harder.
It is typically used to discuss and design learning or working strategies alongside the individual and is regularly used to collaboratively identify learning or performance barriers and the techniques that can be deployed to overcome these.
Unlike clinical reports where the language is necessarily objective, in Cognassist’s consumer-friendly reports the information is presented in a much motivational and encouraging tone.
The Cognassist clinical report is a PDF produced immediately after assessment completion and made available only to those with permission.
Clinical measurement of cognition is critical to provide effective education and employment adjustments. The Cognassist reports don’t just measure, they also analyse in a similar manner a psychologist would, so you get the right answers immediately.
Everyone benefits from better understanding themselves, but clinical reports can be complex. Our consumer-friendly report helps every individual to better understand how their cognition impacts the way they live, learn and work.
The consumer report is accessible online and enables the individual to engage with and ask questions about their cognition to Kai, our AI-enabled chat. Allow your learners to discover their cognition like never before in a safe, positive and cost-effective way.

Cognassist is ISO 27001 compliant and audited annually against these standards. Our Information Security standards have been audited and satisfied the cyber security requirements of organisations as diverse as military defence companies to critical infrastructure providers.
Cognassist does not diagnose neuro-differences or apply labels such as Dyslexic, Autistic or ADHD and does not provide risk profiles for these labels either.
Due to our scientific validity the Clinical Reports can be used by qualified professionals as part of their assessment decision when providing a diagnosis but Cognassist does not provide diagnosis or risk profiles.
Instead, the Cognassist reports focus on how best to support and enable the individual to achieve their goals, whilst building evidence packs to support funding claims, exam adjustment applications, or reasonable adjustment plans.
After a monitoring visit, Educationwise put everything into creating the best learner experience and received Ofsted Outstanding on their first full visit.

Since adopting Cognassist, we have experienced transformative results. We can now identify learners who need additional support from day one, allowing for timely interventions and personalised learning experiences.
Our learners report feeling more understood and supported, and our tutors are better equipped to provide targeted assistance.

Cognassist is one of only a handful of digital cognitive assessments globally to be validated to the most rigorous scientific standards. Each trial involves a team of independent chartered psychologists working alongside our own team of internal psychologists. Each validity study is individually designed, recruited for and then independently audited throughout the study, this process is repeated until the study is proven to evidence the validity of the task.
Each of our 9 tasks have been separately validated. During each study we selectively recruit over 300 paid participants to complete our task and at least one proven paper-based test of the same area of cognition. These participants complete these tests in laboratory conditions whilst being independently adjudicated by a team of qualified psychologists. The study process is designed, monitored and reviewed by the team of independent psychologists.
This process is comprehensive and costly which is why Cognassist is one of only a handful of digital cognitive assessments globally to be approved by the most rigorous standard setting authorities.
