Benefits of Becoming an MTI Mental Trainer®

The Certified Mental Trainer® (CMT) designation is available to all MTI Team members who achieve AASP certification and/or meet our specific certification criteria below;
  2. Part of MTI Corporate: The Mental Training, Inc. name is well known in the sport psychology and performance enhancement industries.

  4. Professional Liability Insurance: All MTI Mental Trainers® receive professional liability insurance included at no extra cost ($1million/$3million);

Becoming Certified in the Mental Training Industry

If you do not have mental training-related certifications, we can assist you in several ways:

  1. AASP Certification Supervision (CC-AASP): The Association of Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) is the most recognized certification authority in the industry. It has challenging certification requirements that include a graduate degree, coursework in psychology, counseling and kinesiology, and a practicum of direct supervised hours with athletes. For those who are on track to meet the educational requirements but not the supervision hours, you can contract with MTI. The cost is $2,500 and can be spread out over the initial months. Using video, phone and internet, Dr. Neff will work directly with you to satisfy the AASP supervision requirements, no matter where you reside.

  2. Future Certified Mental Trainer® Program (F-CMT): Before working 1-on-1 with athletes as part of the MTI Team, we require all consultants to complete our internal certification requirements. Once completed, all Mental Trainers® will be able to use the professional designation of "CMT." AASP certified consultants who have joined the MTI Team have already met most of our criteria and will be more quickly awarded the CMT designation. The Future Certified Mental Trainer (F-CMT) program is $3,000 for non-AASP consultants, and $1,500 for AASP consultants. The F-CMT program by itself involves the following:
  • A custom-designed certification program;
  • Regular meetings with a Mental Trainer® (weekly is the target);
  • 50 hours of supervision using the MTI Consultation Process;
  • Knowledge test over the MTI performance enhancement core concepts;
  • Knowledge test over program design and problem solving;
  • Knowledge test over the competitive sport industry (history and terminology of the 10 biggest sports); and,
  • Knowledge test over basic business practices (accounting, marketing, time management, networking, etc.).
Here's what the F-CMT process provides:
  • Detail on MTI consultation systems for intakes, sessions, renewals, tracking, etc. This is done through session observation (in-person & video) and use of the Mental Trainer® Certification Manual;
  • Access to quality mental training skills and content. This is done through OMT, CMC, "Roadmap to the Zone" ebook, and Dr. Weinberg's "Foundations" textbook;
  • Supervised client interaction and feedback. This is done through mock sessions, videotaped role playing and leading live client sessions;
  • Clear and fair knowledge assessments. This is done through a series of online tests.
