As for this year's program, it will be of special interest for long-time SABA members as well as new members. It will be directed to discussions of methods of evaluation and treatments, very interactive in tone, with an opportunity to synthesize unifying principles of neuroplasticity including key perspectives and findings in applied neuroscience research and evidence-based neurotherapy. This will be an opportunity for all of us to learn from each other and to establish a consensus on common theories, mechanisms, and procedural and conceptual standards.
SABA is a non-profit membership organization of educators, researchers, and clinicians focused on
normative electroencephalography (EEG) and EEG operant conditioning. SABA was the first organization to offer a
comprehensive examination on normative EEG interpretation and acquisition (Technologist); and the Diplomate exam remains the most rigorous and difficult to pass, with questions drawn from accredited university curricula. Exam information can be
found at here.
