People development and performance optimization professionals across the globe face similar challenges when facilitating learning. The one thing all humans have in common is the brain. The neuroscience of learning, therefore, provides a common language for learning and dealing with the challenges performance improvement professionals face. The neuroscience of learning should be the point of departure for any global learning initiative as it is an inclusive science that focuses on the one thing we all have – a brain. It is an emerging science, vital for every performance improvement professional to understand how they can optimize the most important part of their company/client’s human capital – their ability to learn!

The good news however is that you don’t have to be a neuroscientist to ground your people development or performance optimization practices in neuroscience. When you do the Neuroscience Coaching Courses at the University of Pretoria, you get access to sound applied neuroscience practices, approaches and tools that will help you anchor your education, talent development or performance optimization practices into neuroscience that validates learning.

Neuro-Link has a collaborative academic agreement with The University of Pretoria, the biggest research University in Africa, in the field of Brain Fitness and Higher Neuroscience Coaching.

As part of the Neuroscience Group of the University of Pretoria, Dr. André Vermeulen, CEO of Neuro-Link, in collaboration with Professor Peet du Toit, head of the Neuroscience Group of the University of Pretoria, developed the following three-phase, neuroscience coaching courses that can be done through Enterprises University of Pretoria:

The above courses are online, self-study courses presented by CE@UP  and can be done at your own pace. Each module consists of videos, PowerPoint slides, handouts/manuals and multiple-choice questions. A result of 80% is expected before you can move on to the next level. After complying with all requirements, course participants will be certified with a certificate of completion after phases 1, a certificate of competence after phase 2 and a certificate of competence after phase 3.
