Common Misconception

A helmet protects the skull. Not the brain.

This is one of the most important things any sideline stakeholder can understand. And most don’t.
Helmets are engineered to prevent skull fractures and reduce the risk of catastrophic head injury. That’s critically important. But a concussion is not a skull injury. It’s a brain injury caused by rapid acceleration and deceleration forces that make the brain move inside the skull. No helmet currently available fully stops that movement.
What helmets do: Absorb impact energy to prevent skull fractures, lacerations, and subdural bleeding.
What they can’t do: Stop the brain’s inertial movement inside the skull caused by rotational forces.
The risk: A false sense of protection leads to poor sideline decisions. A helmeted athlete can absolutely sustain a concussion.

Post-Injury Assessment

Without vs. With Baseline Testing

Without Baseline

  • No pre-injury reference
  • Subjective symptom reports
  • Guessing on return-to-play
  • Pressure to clear early
  • No documentation trail

With Baseline

  • Objective comparison data
  • Neurocognitive benchmarks
  • Evidence-based clearance
  • Protected decisions
  • Defensible documentation
Why It Changes Everything

Without a baseline,
you are guessing.

Baseline testing captures how an athlete’s brain functions before any injury occurs – their cognitive speed, reaction time, memory, and balance. After a suspected concussion, that same test is repeated. The comparison is objective, not based on whether the athlete feels ready or claims to be fine. This course walks you through what baseline testing is, why it matters, and how it integrates with the free Concussion Tracker App that comes with your enrollment.

2-3x

Athletes who return to play too early are 2–3 times more likely to suffer a prolonged or complicated recovery.

Why It Changes Everything

Free for every user.
No exceptions.

Every Sideline Course enrollment includes free access to the Concussion Tracker App – the same remote monitoring tool used by NeuroLogic clinical software partners. For teams without in-house medical staff, this is the closest thing to having an expert on the sideline.
Remote baseline testing: Athletes complete neurocognitive baselines on their own phone, before the season.
Instant stakeholder alerts: When a concern is flagged, coaches, parents, and medical staff are notified automatically.
Post-injury comparison: Symptom data stacked against the pre-season baseline gives you an objective picture, not a gut feeling.
Full roster management: Track your entire team from one dashboard. Fully scalable to any team.
The Curriculum

6 modules. Zero fluff.

Everything a non-medical sideline stakeholder needs to know, and nothing they don’t.

01

Concussion Basics

What actually happens to the brain during a concussion, why it’s a functional (not structural) injury, and why it doesn’t show on a standard scan.
  • Mechanism of injury
  • Why imaging is often normal
  • The role of neurometabolic disruption

02

Recognizing a Concussion

The full spectrum of signs and symptoms — including the subtle ones most people miss. What to look for when there’s no obvious hit or fall.
  • Physical, cognitive & emotional signs
  • Delayed symptom onset
  • Sideline recognition tools

03

Immediate Care & Removal from Play

What to do in the first minutes, how to communicate with the athlete and parents, and the non-negotiable rule: when in doubt, sit them out.
  • Emergency red flags
  • Safe removal protocol
  • Communicating with parents on the spot

04

Return to Learn

How to support cognitive recovery in the school environment: academic accommodations, pacing, and the graduated return-to-learn protocol.
  • Working with teachers & administrators
  • Cognitive load management
  • Step-by-step return protocol

05

Return to Play

The evidence-based graduated return-to-play protocol, why symptom resolution is not clearance, and who has the authority to clear an athlete.
  • 6-step graduated protocol
  • Medical clearance requirements
  • Second Impact Syndrome

06

Prevention & Baseline Testing

Why baselines change everything, how the Concussion Tracker App works, and practical steps every team can take before the season starts.
  • Pre-season baseline setup
  • Concussion Tracker App walkthrough
  • Building a sideline protocol for your team
Who It's For

The people closest to the action.

🏃

Coaches

  • "My player said he feels fine and wants back in. I can't bench him for something I'm not even sure is a concussion."
  • After this course, you'll have a clear protocol that removes the guesswork and protects you legally if a decision is ever questioned.
👪

Parents

  • "I've seen so much conflicting information. Is this serious? Do I take them to emergency? Can they go to school tomorrow?"
  • You'll leave with a calm, structured understanding of exactly what to do from the moment of injury through return to sport.
🏫

Teachers & Admin

  • "A student came back from a concussion and we weren't sure how to support them. We didn't want to make things worse."
  • This course covers return-to-learn protocols and gives you practical tools to support recovery in the classroom.
Simple Pricing

A no-brainer decision.

Less than a post-game meal. More valuable than years of conflicting advice.
