Bond Students Boosting Their Brains

Feb. 14, 2010 - PRLog -- Navon and BUSA (Bond University Student Association) have combined to offer all staff, students and alumni access to cutting edge cognitive training technology. Not only will CogniFit Personal Coach boost their ability to focus, absorb and retain information, it also enhances their mental and brain health as well.

Bond University has always been keen to promote more effective ways of learning, as well as the entrepreneurial spirit. So it is no surprise then that BUSA is actively promoting an online brain training program that is supplied by a company co-founded by a Bond alumni member. Available through Navon brain fitness solutions, the program is called CogniFit Personal Coach and is both a cognitive assessment and training tool. The training is customised according to each individual user’s unique needs and contains highly advanced technology that adjusts the level of challenge to each user’s optimum threshold of ability" on any given day – the level which promotes positive biochemical changes within the brain.

Adam Roberts, President of the BUSA said “I am very keen to promote this amongst students as I feel there is great benefit”. Duncan Ferguson, co-founder of Navon, said “having been through the rewarding yet demanding Bond MBA course myself I could see the need for a program that helps university students improve their ability to focus, absorb and retain information.”

Navon offers special discounts through BUSA and part of the revenue flows back to BUSA in order to help finance their operations. Mr. Ferguson said “It’s a win-win situation and it’s no surprise to us that Bond was the first University in Australia to recognise and act on this opportunity.”

Those interested in learning more about CogniFit Personal Coach can visit the navon website www.navon.com.au where they can also access a 14-day free trial of the program.
