Course Description
Synchronous timing of neural networks is fundamental for cognitive, communicative, sensory, and motor performance in individuals of all ages. Numerous peer reviewed research studies have implicated poor neural timing & synchronization, which manifests as poor auditory-motor timing & rhythm, in Dyslexia and other Reading Disorders, Speech and Language Disorders, Auditory Processing Disorder,  Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder,  Autism Spectrum Disorders,  Sensory Processing Disorders, Cognitive Deficits, Communication Disorders, Motor Dyscoordination, Parkinson’s Disease,  & Schizophrenia.  Some of the observable symptoms of impaired neural timing & synchronization include trouble with attention, working memory, executive functions, processing speed, auditory processing, speech & language, academic achievement in reading & math, sensory processing, and motor coordination/control.  This engaging presentation, Module 1 of the OnDemand Certification & Coaching Course, is designed to introduce you to the Interactive Metronome, patented biometric technology that objectively measures and improves human timing & rhythm in order to help those you serve in hospitals, clinics & schools achieve their goals and exceed expectations
