Access to the Cogmed Training Web – Both the user and the Cogmed coach review and monitor the results of each day’s training, using the online system.
Wrap-up session – About one month after the training is completed, the Cogmed coach summarizes the training together with the user and provides feedback data from rating scales and the Cogmed training web.
Six months follow-up interview – The Cogmed coach documents training effects again, with more time elapsed and the effects fully emerged.

Cogmed extension training is optional and no extra fee is involved for the first 12 months.
The cost for all of this to be completed with a neuropsychologist is competitively priced at $1500.
