About The Course
This course builds the foundation of genuine understanding of EEG analysis, showing the power of single-channel measurements. It focuses on analysis of average values and identification of artifacts (measured activity that is not EEG).
In this course Dr Moshe Perl shares his unique and expansive knowledge of EEG analysis in the context of neurofeedback protocol selection. This knowledge is based on his extensive clinical practice and over 20 years of teaching and mentoring.
OUR STUDENTS
Who Is The Course For?
Practitioners at all levels will find this course useful, from those early in their career to advanced practitioners who have used computer-generated QEEG reports and want a more hands-on understanding of EEG.
- Are you a neurofeedback practitioner interested in understanding EEG?
- Do you want to have a confidence in what the EEG is telling you and how to apply that to neurofeedback?
- Would you like to access the power of EEG, without having to buy or train in 19-channel QEEG equipment?
- Do you want to get 3.5 hours of BCIA recertification credit by learning through content that is engaging and practical?
Dr Perl has devoted years with the world's leading experts in neurofeedback and EEG analysis. He's looked at thousands of EEGs. He's grilled the top experts on how they use this information. He's sorted out what information is actually important and how to explain it. He is often praised for his ability to take difficult subjects and communicate them in simple, understandable, accessible ways.
This course makes complex topics both accessible and enjoyable! Take your neurofeedback practice to the next level with NIA's "Learn to read the EEG for Neurofeedback (Fundamentals)".

IMPORTANT Note
Certification & Prerequisites
3.5 hours of BCIA recertification (professional development) credit are available upon completion of the course.
This course assumes a minimum level of competency in concepts relating to neurofeedback, including the following:
- How to prep clients for neurofeedback
- How to operate neurofeedback hardware and software
- An understanding of the 10-20 location system
- Have taken our Protocol Selection course.
- Know the fundamentals of EEG wave analysis
This is not a "basics" or "101" course in neurofeedback. It will not introduce "the basics of neurofeedback", nor the technical side of implementing treatment (i.e. how to use equipment) as it is assumed that students already possess a basic understanding of amplitude neurofeedback and have access to equipment that allows them to adjust neurofeedback protocols. Ideally students will have already completed a basic hands-on course in neurofeedback and/or a BCIA certified course in neurofeedback.

STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
Trusted by Clients & Clinicians
Practitioners from all over the world trust Dr. Perl's industry-leading clinical expertise. Here are some testimonials from our students.
"Moshe’s experience shines through when he perfectly sums up a person’s symptoms and personality tendencies by looking at a few seconds of EEG data. He inspires me to keep learning!"
The NIA provide incredible workshops and online learning experiences. I’d highly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore and further their QEEG & neurofeedback knowledge.
"I recommend Dr. Perl as a very knowledgeable trainer, clinical supervisor or mentor in the fields of neurofeedback and QEEG analysis."
His patient and personable style enabled me to gradually build my confidence to a point of operating independently as a practitioner.
"I have a passion for neuroscience, but can find it daunting."
Dr Moshe Perl’s knowledge, as well as his teaching and mentoring style, make learning in this complex field so much more accessible! Dr Moshe Perl is a great mentor with vast knowledge and years of experience.
“I strongly recommend any opportunity put out by the NIA!"
Moshe doesn’t simply “sell” his own approach, but is able to relate to other approaches as well. His experience and clarity in explaining the “why and how” of Neurofeedback are relevant and very helpful... Even though I have some years of neurofeedback experience, I have always finished sessions with a clearer sense of treatment direction, that was communicated in a clear and easy to understand format.
"Both Moshe and his son David set a warm and encouraging tone."
I have always come away from NIA’s mentoring and training workshops having progressed both my clinical and technical expertise with neurofeedback and later, QEEG.
"Dr Perl is recognised as one of the world leaders in the clinical application of neurofeedback."
He is highly regarded by his colleagues, and that is no coincidence. I can honestly say that I would never leave home without neurofeedback and The NIA’s training and mentoring.
