Also, LD assessment results can be used to gain the adult learner
accommodations for GED testing or External Diploma testing. Also some
vocational licensing programs will only offer testing accommodations if
there is a documented need for them.

Questions -Assessment ...

I believe that another important question when deciding whether
an adult should be assessed for learning disabilities, is the
following.... what would be done with the results of such an evaluation?
A formal assessment of ability and achievement can only be justified if
the results can be used to inform a program of remediation of identified
disabilities.
