Course Curriculum


  BLTT Course
Available in days
days after you enroll

For the completion of the course, we will schedule an online Practicum session. The Practicum is the final step to activating your membership as a Certified Brain Longevity Specialist. It will be a simple, 10-minute presentation based on a BLTT-related topic of your choice. For example, you could talk about ways to reduce stress through exercise and why it's important for brain health– no props or powerpoints necessary. We will, of course, explain this in more detail ahead of time.
