The certificate program in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback provides an alternative for the individual who wishes to obtain a comprehensive introduction to biofeedback and neurofeedback, without undertaking an academic degree program. All training and didactic education is designed to follow the knowledge blueprint of the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). Students pursuing the certificate must document access to biofeedback instrumentation including at least three modalities, and preferably access to neurofeedback instrumentation as well. The certificate is a 10-credit program, including a graduate colloquium, three academic courses, and two residential conferences. The certificate program in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback offers one enrollment period in the fall semester. The first course begins in Fall A and continues through the end of the summer semester or until the practicum requirement is complete.
Additional BCIA requirements include: a course in anatomy and physiology, supervised experience, and exam. Refer to the BCIA for further details: www.bcia.org.
