  • The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) is an organization that issues certificates for biofeedback, which is "gaining awareness of biological processes". Biofeedback Certification Institute of America was established in 1981 as a non-profit organization. BCIA is a member of the Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE). BCIA certifies individuals who meet education and training standards in biofeedback and neurofeedback and progressively recertifies those who satisfy continuing education requirements. BCIA certification has been endorsed by the Mayo Clinic, the Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback (AAPB), the International Society for Neurofeedback and Research (ISNR), and the Washington State Legislature. BCIA has advanced this mission by developing rigorous ethical standards, Blueprints of Knowledge, core reading lists, and examinations based on the reading lists for its three main certification programs. BCIA serves the international community and the field by requiring that its certificants demonstrate entry-level competence and agree to follow its ethical code. Recertification encourages certificants to increase and update their knowledge of the field. BCIA is administered by a professional staff that is supervised by an independent board of directors of clinicians, educators, and researchers in the field. Regionally accredited institutions in the United States and Europe have adopted the BCIA Blueprints of Knowledge. These include Alliant International University, Cal State Fullerton, East Carolina University, Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, Kansas State University, Niagara County Community College, Nova Southeastern University, San Francisco State University, Saybrook Graduate School, Sigmund Freud University (Austria), Sonoma State University, Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine, St. Mary's University, Texas, Truman State University, the University of Maryland, the University of North Texas, the University of South Florida, and Widener University. Saybrook Graduate School and Widener University also provide distance education. BCIA has responded to growing international interest in its certification by approving new training programs in Hong Kong, Japan, and Taiwan. Professionals certified by BCIA in General Biofeedback may refer to themselves as Board Certified in Biofeedback (BCB), in Neurofeedback as Board Certified in Neurofeedback (BCN), and Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction Biofeedback as Board Certified in Biofeedback for Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction (BCB-PMD). The majority of BCIA's international certificants practice in Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia. (en)
