Training

The MBECF was designed to be user-friendly, and the manual contains directions for the overall administration of the evaluation plus directions for implementing and scoring each item. Numerous conference sessions and continuing music therapy education sessions (CMTEs) have been offered on the MBECF over the years, but no formal training or certification is necessary to use it. Since the scoring system utilizes clinical knowledge and intuition, the MBECF is designed to be administered by a credentialed music therapist. For example, several of the tasks requiring rhythmic responses require the therapist to determine when a client’s playing is, in fact, in rhythm. Rather than providing detailed criteria for number of beats or a designated timeframe for these responses, it is left up to the therapist’s intuitive musical and clinical judgement to assign the most appropriate score.
