Creating a neurofeedback department can be a complex process that requires careful planning and execution. Here are 6 general steps to consider:

  1. Define the Purpose and Goals of the Department: The first step is to determine the purpose and goals of the neurofeedback department. Will it be used for research, clinical treatment, or both? What specific conditions or disorders will the department focus on? These questions will help you determine the equipment and personnel needed for the department.

  2. Gather Resources: Once you have defined the purpose and goals of the department, you will need to gather the necessary resources.
