6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program (CIP)
6 hours per day, 5 days per week for 6 weeks
In-Person Only
6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program (CIP)
The 6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program (CIP) targets the Symbol Relations cognitive function, a critical function of the brain that affects all aspects of learning and life. It improves brain connectivity and fundamentally increases the ability to think and learn. Strengthening the Symbol Relations cognitive function means you’ll have a more powerful and positive capacity to process information and engage with the world.
The 6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program is available only as an In-Person program.
Program Benefits
The 6-Week Cognitive Intesnive Program utilises The Arrowsmith Program™, which improves the capacity to develop skills related to :
- Problem solving
- Higher level thinking
- Understanding Inferences
- Finding multi-step solutions
- Using deductive reasoning
- Organization of knowledge
- Processing speed
- Deeper understanding
- Communicating ideas and concepts
How does it work?
The 6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program requires 4-6 hours per day of computer based training exercises, 5 days per week for 6 weeks. The program focuses on brain functions that are responsible for higher order reasoning, problem solving and processing abilities.
- Training is facilitated by highly trained international instructors. Instructors are available for lessons, check ins, goal setting, coaching, and proactive support.
- Revolutionary cognitive training methods drive scientifically proven structural and functional changes in the brain. This results in a greater cognitive capacity to unlock true potential. Improved abilities have benefits that can be applied across all academic disciplines.
- Daily program time also includes daily fitness options and a range of activities to balance the days.

Prior to beginning the Arrowsmith Program, there are important prerequisite skills that will greatly aid success and accelerate progress in the program.
Counting Skills:
Many of the levels in the program are based on concepts found in a 2 handed analogue clock. The following counting skills are important in ensuring the best possible start to the program.
- Counting from 1-60
- Counting from 60-1 (reverse)
- Counting from 5-60 by 5’s
- Counting 12-60 by 12’s
- Participants should have a basic understanding of a 2 handed analogue clock
Counting skills may require daily practice leading up to the start of the program.
Numeric Keypad Touch-typing Skills:
Participants will need to know how to type numbers on the numeric keypad. This is the keypad on the right-hand side of the keyboard, not the numbers along the top. Participants will be using the numeric keypad to enter numbers quickly and accurately, using multiple fingers. Advanced typing skills on the numeric keypad will greatly improve the experience in the program. To improve proficiency at touch typing, daily practice is recommended. Some websites offer free typing programs, be sure to look for websites or apps that have a numeric keypad option.

For individuals who are enroled in an In-Person program, classes will be held on-site at Thanyapura Sports & Health Resort, Phuket.
Research
The cognitive training exercises in the Cognitive Intensive Program have been refined over the past 4 decades. Since 1997 there have been more than 20 research studies involving some 700 students across six universities and nineteen different educational organisations all evaluating the effectiveness of the Arrowsmith Program™. Five of these studies have had control groups and eleven have been peer reviewed. There are another four research projects currently underway at three universities.
The research involves Neuro-imaging and Behavioral studies using multiple designs recommended by the American Psychological Association. Significantly they all show very similar results– that the methods used are effective to improve student learning.
Studies show that the training exercises used in the 6-Week Cognitive Intensive Program lead to structural and functional changes in the brain as well as significant improvements in academic and cognitive measures. Significant improvements were measured in comprehension, mathematics, vocabulary, processing speed, attention, cognitive efficiency, reasoning, and working memory. Participants and their families report better mental health, emotional resilience, and a more positive self-concept.

Life-Changing Experiences
The Arrowsmith Program has changed my life. It's amazing. It's like information can now get into my brain. I understand things better and I can see things more clearly...I now enjoy reading. I use better words and my thoughts flow without having to think. I am more calm and capable. I can recognise and read people's emotions a lot better. I can communicate better and I have a better relationship with my family...It's like I was living in a fog and since Arrowsmith the fog has lifted.
The Arrowsmith Program has allowed me to explore possibilities that I thought previously closed to me...I used to feel like I didn't have control over my future. I was very reactive and had a lot of bad habits. Arrowsmith has improved my ability to understand the perspective of others and communicate more openly. I can see things in a new way and I feel less frustrated because now I can understand the situation. I now have the ability to talk to people. I now am able to set goals and see what I need to do to get there.
The Arrowsmith Program has given me the ability to think faster and think more clearly. I moved [to Phuket] from Singapore to take the program...I have lived with learning disabilities my whole life, this is finally my chance to make things better...It is hard work but it is worth it.
