What is the difference between a certificate and a certification?

The terms "certificate" and "certification" are often used interchangeably, but they refer to different concepts, especially in the context of professional and educational settings.

A certificate is a document you get for finishing a course or training, and it doesn't usually expire. Certification is when you're officially recognized for your skills in a certain area, and this often involves passing a test and keeping your knowledge up to date.

Essentially, a certificate shows you've learned something and finished a professional training, while certification proves you have competence in a specific field and has an expiration date that can require renewal. This renewal process usually involves demonstrating continued competency, professional development, or education.

Does the Mini-Health Course incorporate AI?

Short answer: Yes and no. Let me explain.

I’ve been teaching neuroscience and brain-based health for over a decade, long before AI became widely available or popular. The content in this Mini-Health Course is grounded in my formal training in neuroscience at UCLA at both the undergrad and graduate levels (since 1998), peer-reviewed research, and years of applied work across brain health, nervous system regulation, traumatic brain injury, dementia research, and human development.

Everything you’re learning in this course reflects:

• my academic training and research background
• my experience working with real human nervous systems under stress and healing
• my lived experience as a mother, wife, educator, and scientist
• and my application of neuroscience to everyday health, resilience, and self-regulation

The teachings themselves are mine.
They are not generated by AI.

Where AI is used is in how some of the content is delivered.

I use an AI-supported avatar—trained on my own voice, language, and intellectual property—to responsibly and ethically support delivery in certain modules. This allows me to:

• conserve energy and avoid burnout
• remain present for live coaching and NeuroLabs
• scale access to evidence-based brain health education
• and continue doing this work sustainably and ethically

Some lessons are delivered in my original voice, others through a blend of my voice and AI-supported delivery. Regardless of format, the science, images, videos, frameworks, strategies, and interpretations are all my own and curated by my own brain.

But know this, the deepest value of this course is not just in watching videos, but in understanding how to apply neuroscience to your daily health, stress regulation, and nervous system care and, when available, through live sessions where we practice and integrate together.

I encourage you to watch the course introduction, where I explain my approach to neuroscience, health, and the responsible use of technology, so you can decide if this learning environment is the right fit for you.

My commitment is to scientific integrity, human-centered health, and the ethical use of technology always in service of wellbeing, not replacement of human wisdom.
