About Cogmed Working Memory Training

Cogmed Working Memory Training is a training program for people with working memory and attention deficits. The program is based on published studies and developed by a team of neuroscientists.

The peer-reviewed studies show that Cogmed training reduces symptoms of inattention and inhibition in children and adults, by way of improving weaknesses in working memory capacity.

Cogmed training is a five week computerized program done in the client’s own home. The rigorous programs are available for all age groups.

The training is always supported by a Cogmed Coach from a Cogmed Qualified practice.

Cogmed is established in the United States since 2006, and available at more than 100 practices across North America.
