What is NeuronUP Academy?

The platform of neurorehabilitation NeuronUP, launches NeuronUP Academy, a training academy geared towards professionals working in rehabilitation and cognitive stimulation.

This initiative was born with the idea that neurorehabilitation professionals expand their knowledge by attending free training provided by national and international authorities in the field of rehabilitation and cognitive stimulation.
This online academy is open to all occupational therapists, clinical psychologists, speech language therapy professionals and students working and studying in  processes of rehabilitation and cognitive stimulation and there will be exclusive training for NeuronUP users.
