IMGCA Certification
The International Mental Game Coaching Association
certifies qualified individuals at four levels as Certified Mental
Game Practitioners.
IMGCA courses of study include academic and fieldwork, written work
and a final examination. Candidates who successfully complete certification
receive 16 premium benefits as long as they maintain certification.
They also are entitled to call themselves IMGCA Certified and display
the IMGCA certification logo at their level of certification.
IMGCA certification training programs are based on research, theory,
academics and clinical experiences, but are 90% focused on real-world
applications of this material. You actually learn how to be a mental
game coach. Each session focuses on the everyday challenges of what
you will experience in the field as you work with coaches, athletes
and parents.
Certified Mental Game Practitioner Levels are:
- Level I - IMGCA Certified Mental Game Instructor
- Level II - IMGCA Certified Mental Game Coach
- Level III - IMGCA Certified Mental Game Master Coach
- Level IV - IMGCA Certified Mental Game Professional Coach
The IMGCA is the worldwide leader in the field,
with far-reaching breadth and depth of training and extensive customization.
The international scope of the certification carries far more weight
in the marketplace than local or regional training programs.
