We are a full service Biofeedback and Applied Psychophysiology training and consulting organization. Besides the BCIA General and EEG Clinical Certification programs we also can show you how to obtain the new PMD Certification. We offer Performance and Life Enhancement (MindFitness ® Training), coaching, online training, internships, BCIA mentoring and consulting. We consult and mentor using the Internet Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP). We conduct two way video transmission and can even (with your permission) take over control of your computer should you need it for learning or tech support. 10. What are the requirements for certification? Go to our seminar and training description. If you have further questions please call or email us. The training described therein serve both for certification and non-certification training purposes. The BCIA Certification Training Series is an outstanding solution to the challenge BCIA certification candidates face acquiring the necessary didactic instruction and mentored training in the most economic and time efficient way. Our complete certification training programs meet all didactic and mentored training criteria required by the Biofeedback Certification Institute of America in order to take the certification exams. It is based on the BCIA blueprint for certification and recertification, and participants receive certificates for each seminar completed. Note we are fully qualified to do BCIA mentoring and some of the mentoring requirements are provided within our seminars at a fraction of the normal mentoring cost. However, the balance of the mentoring should be with the mentor that best suits your learning goals and circumstances. We can usually assist you in finding that mentor. Of course, often that mentor is part of our team. For over 19 years we have been aggressively attempting to persuade the BCIA to make it easier and less expensive to get certified. We are encouraged because the BCIA board has made major steps in that direction. The expense and difficulty of getting BCIA certified has been substantially reduced and simplified by the board and we have, therefore, modified our seminars in order to immediately pass all of those advantages on to you. We will continue to advocate for additional changes in the BCIA Certification Process. Our position is that as many people as possible should be brought into the 'certification fold'. We believe the best strategy is to have levels of certification from entry level associates to Diplomate etc. The principle is that once practitioners are on board we can influence those that need more training, and provide opportunities for them to upgrade their skills. If they are excluded we lose that opportunity and weaken our strength internationally. After all, they simply go ahead and practice anyway. In fact, some of them are among the most successful practitioners in our field. We are grateful for the boards actions and we hope that they will continue to streamline and make the certification process more compatible with the realities of our rapidly changing health care system.
