Frequently Asked Questions
SOI stands for “Structure of Intellect,” the proven theory that a person’s intellectual learning abilities can be both identified and improved. It is a system of tests and training materials to develop intellectual abilities.
IPP stands for “Integrated Practice Protocol.” This program, often used in addition to SOI abilities training, is designed to address the underlying causes of learning difficulties through sensory integration and focusing skills (vision) training.
SOI focuses on brain training – improving intellectual abilities like cognition, memory, and problem solving. IPP ensures that the body, eyes, and ears are working correctly so that the brain functions to the best of its ability.
This varies from person to person, and depends on the severity of learning difficulties and how much time and effort is put into SOI brain training. Typically, you will start seeing changes in 20 – 30 hours of training.

It is very different from a typical “test.” We are assessing your learning abilities, not your knowledge. Instead of questions like, “What year did the United States join World War II?” you will complete questions that require putting your memory, problem solving abilities, and other skills to work.
