Mini-Q with Intermediate / Advanced Applications with Full-Head Live Z Score Training Montages
 
Health care professionals will be trained in the art of (Mini Q) QEEG data acquistion with EEG recording caps as well as intermediate or advanced neurofeedback applications.
Participants are professional health care providers who meet the
following prerequisites:
1. Minimum of approximately 4-6 months neurofeedback training experience.
2. If you are bringing equipment, download latest upgrade (either 2.5 or 3.0) of BrainMaster software with laptop (additional sharing or work stations will be be available for those who do not as yet have MiniQ or BrainMaster software or equipment)
3. Own MiniQ equipment, software and EEG recording caps or would like to learn how to acquire data via EEG recording caps. (Extra caps will be available at seminar) or are interested in adding MiniQ assessment and/or training to their practice.
4. Most participants will experience a MiniQ assessment and analysis.

Richard Soutar
A pioneer in the field of neurofeedback, Dr. Soutar has published three books on the topic of neurofeedback and conducted workshops on the various aspects of neurofeedback at conferences and clinics in the U.S and Europe. As a former professor of psychology and sociology, he has had extensive experience in teaching and training at both the undergraduate and the graduate level. He has also been working continuously over the years as a clinician, director and business administrator of various clinics around the country as well. He developed the first fully certified internet training course for neurofeedback. He has worked successfully with professional atheletes and businessmen on peak performance as well as a wide spectrum of individuals with the traditionally labeled psychological and medical disorders. He has also pioneered a wide range of clinical screening and assessment tools for neurofeedback including, the MiniQ, The MagnitudeAnalysis System, The Interactive Self Inventory, and The NPC Symptoms Checklist. He has also consulted with a variety of equipment manufacturers on the development of The MiniQ, Distance Training and Training Screen Formats as well as the portable mini neurofeedback trainer, the Bioscan ABT. Presently he is consulting on a variety of grants and research projects for the development of cybernetic interface for ALS patients, Spinal Chord Injury, and Depression.
Tom Collura, Ph.D., P.E
