The mission of the International Mental Game Coaching

professionalism, and growth of the discipline of mental
game coaching worldwide.

membership organization, created January 1, 2006, and
is the only national or international mental game coaching
membership organization in the world today.
The IMGCA is comprised of individuals and institutions
interested in the mental aspects of sports, movement,
health, fitness, business, the arts, achievement, work-life
balance, stress control, and peak performance. IMGCA
members come from all walks of life, and have varied
backgrounds in sports performance, coaching, teaching,
writing, business and consulting. They are professionals,
students, parents, and interested observers of the mental
game.
IMGCA membership includes 22 benefits including listings

and access to exclusive articles and videos.

Advanced Standing Certification Credit For Degrees And Work
|
|
IMGCA offers advanced standing for holders of non-IMGCA certifications. If you hold a certification in fields similar to psychology or education, and others, IMGCA will explore the options for advanced standing with you. Certifications in hypnosis, NLP or other similar areas usually qualify also.

Challenge Exams For Fast-Track Certification
|
|
You can choose to take a challenge exam to pass any IMGCA certification level. You would simply pay the appropriate fees and take the exam. You would immediately have full 24-7 access to all materials in the IMGCA Private Back Room, and you would completely bypass any classes, homework and fieldwork. When you pass the challenge exam, you would be certified at that particular level, and you’d enjoy all 33 IMGCA Certification Benefits.
