The mission of the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) is to certify individuals who meet education and training standards in biofeedback and progressively recertify those who advance their knowledge through continuing education. In strategic recognition of the growing international interest in biofeedback research and practice, BCIA has launched a number of programs in support of worldwide biofeedback certification and global standards for training and education. This article discusses BCIA's international efforts in support of its mission.

The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) certifies individuals who meet education and training standards in biofeedback and progressively recertifies those who advance their knowledge through continuing education. Increased national and international interest in our field has been accompanied by closer scrutiny of clinical efficacy and professional conduct. BCIA has expanded its international outreach in order to raise the standards of biofeedback and neurofeedback education and practice throughout the world. This article answers frequent questions about the growth of international certification, continuing education, ethics, and marketing your practice.

The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) has developed a certificate of completion program to establish education and training standards for the exciting modality of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback. HRV represents the beat-to-beat changes in the intervals between consecutive heartbeats. A growing list of HRV biofeedback applications has earned ratings from possibly efficacious to probably efficacious. BCIA's expert-designed Blueprint of Knowledge and exam promise to increase the academic rigor of didactic HRV biofeedback courses and enhance the knowledge of providers who incorporate this modality into their practice.

Cultivation of innovation capabilities not only is the top priority in the training and education of graduate students, but also a fundamental objective of the teaching curriculum for graduate students. Based on the practice of graduate education and training as a starting point, and combined with the author’s own teaching experience and understanding, this paper conducts a preliminary analysis and exploration on the ways and means of cultivation of innovation capabilities for graduate students.

The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA)-Australia has recently become the first fully autonomous affiliate of BCIA, certifying neurofeedback professionals in Australia, with requirements equivalent to those of BCIA. BCIA has also established a worldwide network of professionals, who intermittently meet to promote biofeedback and neurofeedback certification in each national community. BCIA accredits programs providing basic training and continuing education.

Illegal levies have been ingrained in the correctional ranks that exist throughout  Indonesia. This has become a bad precedent for socialization in the community. With  this, it is necessary to improve the integrity and transparent public service system that  is provided to service recipient communities to improve public trust in correctional  services in prisons and detention centers in Indonesia. Services that can be provided to  service recipient communities are services that can be seen directly from the results  and transparency in realizing excellent service and quality. Services that are a complaint  against indications of illegal levies in prisons and detention are services to visits (bezel),  remission proposals, assimilation, conditional leave, free explanatory leave, paid  release, and the provision of other services needed by the community and prisoners.  To get information that is as clear as possible, this study uses descriptive  qualitative research methods by measuring the behavior of officers, prisoners, and  prisoners. The research uses in-depth interview methods to visitors (bezel), to prisoners  and prisoners as data sampling and direct observation in the Class I Prison in Bandung  to find out the actual conditions in the research locus.  The results of the study indicate the need for strengthening commitment with all levels  of officials and officers in the Bandung Klas I Prison in eradicating illegal levies in  providing services, increasing commitment and integrity in services, providing  Information technology-based services and strict supervision of the giving of prisoners'  rights. Realizing principles and regulations are necessary to provide guidance and  training for all Klas I Bandung detention officers to strengthen Integrity in the  implementation of tasks. With training and education can provide strength and insight  for officers to be able to build integrity and commitment to good service in prison.

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"> </p><p><span lang="EN-US"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">While the 19th and the 20th centuries were, in education, mainly about standardization, the 21st century is about visualization, interaction, customization, gamification and flipped teaching. What today we know about learning from cognitive psychology is that people learn by practicing, with feedback to tell them what they're doing right and wrong and how to get better. For STEM education, that means they need to practice thinking like a scientist in the field. So e-REAL is a cornerstone: developed as workplace learning system in a number of fields (from medical simulation to soft skills development within the continuing education), it’s an ideal solution to root a practical – but not simplicistic - approach for STEM education.</span></strong></span></p>

This study aims to determine and analyze the magnitude of the influence of the development of leadership quality, coordination and training and education on improving safety culture. Based on the results of research using partial and multiple linear regression analysis with the help of SPSS version 24 shows that: partially shows that the role of leadership has a positive and significant influence of 26.4% on safety culture. The second independent variable is coordination which has a positive and significant effect of 74.4% on safety culture. Partially the third independent variable of education and training also has a positive and significant effect of 20.5% on the quality of safety culture. Furthermore, the independent variables of the Role of Leadership, coordination, training and education are tested simultaneously or together using the F Test and prove to have an influence with three positive independent variables and all three are significant to the Improvement of Safety Culture with the magnitude of influence can be seen from the coefficient of determination (R2) is 74.9%

The use of new information technologies has the advantage of supporting all those in charge of any organization in their decisions, and allowing them visibility as quickly as it is relevant to all the important indicators of their system. Human resources managers are using more and more IT tools to better follow the continuing education open for the teaching staff. The number of these training courses and the high number of participating teachers can pose many monitoring and traceability problems. Hence the idea of proposing a model based on e-learning solutions to help adapt the teaching to the learner, and to ensure traceability when switching from one training to another.
