What is Mental Performance?
Who is qualified?
The Applied Association for Sport Psychology (AASP) has recently created a certification process for mental performance consultants. Certified Mental Performance Consultants (CMPCs) are required to complete specific coursework, a certain number of hours of practice, and do continuing education in order to maintain competency.
What does a Cmpc do?
Mental training refers to a process in which athletes, usually guided by consultants or coaches, systematically use strategies and techniques to build mental skills and wellbeing to enhance their performance, development, and experiences (Vealey, 2024).
