Pharmacological treatments for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) have not been successful, leading to computerized cognitive training (CCT) efforts. CCT alone does not improve everyday functioning, so skills training is needed. Combining CCT and novel computerized functional skills training software (FUNSAT) leads to gains in functional skills and cognition across both MCI and NC. Previous training was conducted in person and real-world transfer was not assessed. The current study had fully remote training with 3x weekly ecological momentary assessment (EMA) sampling both trained and untrained skills.
