The Biofeedback Certification Institute of America (BCIA) was created in January 1981 to establish and maintain standards for practitioners who use biofeedback, and certify those who meet these standards. BCIA is an autonomous nonprofit corporation. Its primary mission is to protect the public welfare by assuring the competence of certified biofeedback practitioners. BCIA policies and procedures are determined by an independent board which is comprised of a rotating group of distinguished biofeedback clinicians and researchers.
In 1996 the Board of Directors of the Biofeedback Certification Institute of America and the Academy of Certified Neurotherapists collaborated to develop a specialty certification in EEG Biofeedback to be managed and administered by BCIA. The opportunity to certify through the grand parenting process ended on December 31, 1997. As of 1998 the formal certification program in EEG Biofeedback is underway. In 2004 certification in Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction was added.
