The Need in Our Industry

Graduate programs teach the sport psych content pretty well, but their focus is not on preparing people to make a living in the mental training industry! There are hundreds who graduate annually with Masters degrees or higher in the sport psych industry, but only a handful survive trying to build an applied career.

Obviously knowing what mental skills are doesn’t mean you’ll be good at improving performance, and then there’s the business side of marketing, sales & client management. It should be no surprise that without specific guidance & support, very few last long and their degrees go unused.

Requirements:

  • Masters or Doctorate in a related field. Many begin this certification while finishing their graduate degree
  • A letter of interest in an applied mental training career + CV & graduate transcripts
  • Internet access, computer, webcam

Typical Duration: 3-5 months, including supervision

Delivery: 1-on-1 sessions online with a senior Mental Trainer® using video conferencing

Cost: $3,000

MTI’s commitment is to help you get to the $100,000 income level as soon as possible, but there is a price to pay! That price is consistent hard work, and much of it will likely be outside your comfort zone. But you won’t have to guess what business-building actions to take – that part is clear. The target we have for you to get there is 24 months, and we’ll support you throughout. We’ll show you how to build and grow a large prospect funnel, and how to leverage your time through group training. All CMTs are commissioned contractors who are trained to use MTI services & IP to build a successful income for themselves, wherever they might live. That means your business is your own, but without most of the risk of starting on your own! MTI provides the necessary business training and support along the way, including the website, logos, marketing materials, sales process, and even initial leads and referrals. We’ve built this mental training certification to be the best in the industry.
