LearningRx Staunton Harrisonburg joins other LearningRx centers around the nation to become a Board Certified Cognitive Center (BCCC), a designation granted by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES).

The BCCC designation is awarded to organizations whose staff have completed professional training and certification on autism, ADHD, anxiety, and dyslexia in school-aged learners.

“We are so excited to receive the designation of Board Certified Cognitive Center, said Executive Director, Sandy Zamalis. “At LearningRx Staunton-Harrisonburg, we value continuing education in the cognitive field so that we stay current with the science behind cognition and the best evidence-based techniques used to help our clients.” 

For more than 35 years, LearningRx has provided cognitive training to clients who range in age from 5 to 95. Their “brain trainers” sit one-on-one with clients and use a variety of hands-on manipulatives to train cognitive skills, including working and long-term memory, visual and auditory processing, reasoning skills, processing speed, and attention.

“One of the core values that guide our daily performance is ‘excellence,'” reports Kim Hanson, CEO of LearningRx Brain Training. “We strive for excellence in customer service; excellence in program results; and excellence in the training of our team members—the Center owners, directors, and brain trainers who interact with our clients every day. Our partnership with IBCCES allows us to expand that excellence by providing team members with a series of certifications that buoy their leadership abilities and enrich their competencies in ADHD, anxiety, dyslexia, and autism. It’s a win for our team and a win for the children and adults we have the pleasure of helping, all over the world.”   

For more than 20 years, IBCCES has been the industry leader in cognitive disorder training and certification for education, healthcare, and corporate professionals worldwide. IBCCES provides evidence-based training and certification programs created in conjunction with clinical experts and individuals with autism to give professionals serving individuals with cognitive disorders a better understanding of these disorders, industry best practices, varied perspectives, and the latest research in these areas.

“Our program complements the LearningRx team’s existing areas of focus, enhancing their understanding of cognitive disorders and helping them to continue to have positive outcomes for those they serve,” said Myron Pincomb, IBCCES Board Chairman.
