Cogmed's training is built around three easy-to-use software programs based on age.

 


What is Working Memory?

 


Working memory is the ability to keep information in our mind for a short period of time, while using it to carry out a task. It means remembering what to focus on or what to do next.



Working Memory has been called The "Search Engine of the Brain"!



We use our working memory every day to:

  • remember what we should do next, 
  • to solve problems, and
  • to pay attention.


Individuals with working memory problems may find it difficult to:

  • Plan
  • Start or finish a task
  • Remember what was just said
  • Remember instructions


The good news is that working memory can be trained and improved by using a Cogmed Working Memory Training Program. The program is based on strong scientific research and it is done in the convenience of your own home under the supervision of a qualified Cogmed Coach.
