How Module 1 fits into BCIA certification
Module 1 covers 36 hours of BCIA-approved neurofeedback didactic education.
Completion of Module 1 does not by itself constitute full BCIA certification. The BCIA certification pathway includes additional requirements.
The separate neuroanatomy/neurophysiology course, mentoring, personal neurofeedback sessions and client sessions are not part of these 36 didactic hours.
IFEN can support participants with the additional steps, documentation and preparation required for their individual BCIA pathway.
