Description

Alicia Townsend – EEG Biofeedback/Neurofeedback HomeStudy Course

Course Concept and Description:
This introductory level course is the equivalent of a three-credit course and provides 36 hours of CE credit. The course is targeted to licensed / certified clinicians such as psychologists, counselors, physical therapists, social workers, nurses, and physicians as well as to graduate students. Students learn by watching audiovisual lectures housed on the course website, reading assignments both from materials provided and standard texts, and interacting with their instructor via email. They respond to review tests after each lecture. Students start the course whenever they wish to and proceed at their convenience. There is a one-year limit to complete the course.
The course provides sufficient material so clinicians will know (a) the psychophysiological bases of EEG recordings (b) what the common assessments and interventions are as well as how they work, (c) what common complementary interventions are, (d) how the recording devices work in a clinical setting, (d) how to perform an effective recording, and (e) how to perform effective psychophysiological assessments and interventions. The course meets all of the requirements for the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance’s neurofeedback certification course and is accredited by them for this purpose. Please note that clinicians interested in being certified in neurofeedback by the BCIA would have to meet additional mentoring and education requirements. Please see www.rpspharmacy.com for specifics.
Learning Objectives:
The course objective is to provide the depth of knowledge in psychophysiology, EEG biofeedback equipment and neurofeedback training techniques that clinicians require to perform EEG-based assessments and neurofeedback-based interventions. This information is crucial to effectively adding these techniques to a clinician’s practice.
This course is designed to help the student:
Summarize the psychophysiological processes found in the common clinical presentations covered in the course.
Use psychophysiological recording and neurofeedback devices to record and display psychophysiological information.
Control the biofeedback display to optimize learning.
Use psychophysiological recording equipment to assess patients with specific conditions.
Use neurofeedback equipment to apply specific interventions tailored to each condition covered in the course.
DISCLAIMER: Completion of this continuing education course is strictly for educational / informational purposes and does not imply competency, proficiency, and/or experience. The course completion certificate is neither a clinical certification nor a license to practice.
