WHY GET CERTIFIED?
The one-hour Training & Certification module was conceived to maintain MoCA’s superior validity and was designed for busy medical professionals.
-
Care providers and researchers of all backgrounds will gain applicable knowledge of neuroanatomy and the cognitive domains that MoCA assesses.
-
You will become more confident in administering MoCA and explaining results to patients and families.
-
You will receive a unique MoCA ID number and certificate. Your name and certified status will automatically appear on the tests you administer.
Successful completion of the official Training & Certification is mandatory for anyone administering paper based MoCA tests. We found only 33% of users have acceptable proficiency prior to MoCA Certification, compared to 79% after completing training only once
Training & Certification is now free for students, faculty members, academic researchers and publicly operated healthcare institutions. (Proof of status is required).
Training available in several languages

“The MoCA certification programme firstly allowed me to solidify my knowledge and fill in gaps where I had previously been uncertain when training on the MoCA solo. Most prevalently however, it also allowed me to evidence this knowledge and confidence to my participants. The Training and Certification programme was easy to follow, easy to understand, and facilities and feedback are great. I would highly suggest the programme!”
