The International Academy for Child Brain Development

The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential is a bona fide member of The International Academy for Child Brain Development (IACBD). This organization was founded in 1984 as a federally tax-exempt nonprofit corporation.

Members include anthropologists, therapists, educators, and physicians who come from the United States, Brazil, England, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Spain, Guatemala, and Italy. All members are child brain developmentalists who have earned certification at the Temple Fay Institute for Academics, a graduate teaching organization offering courses designed to meet stringent requirements.

During the Academy's history, members have employed the extensive knowledge gained by The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential. The Institutes have welcomed more than twenty-two thousand children and their parents from 107 countries. These children have benefited from discoveries in the new field of child brain development.

The International Academy for Child Brain Development is committed along with The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential "to the significant increase of the ability of all children to perform in physical, physiological, intellectual and social realms." The board certified members of IACBD have vowed to strive for this objective "in all children throughout the spectrum of human accomplishment."

The Academy holds two annual meetings on the campus of The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential: in May, during the annual meetings of The World Organization for Human Potential, and in November.
