Continuing Education Courses
Continuing Education (CE) credits are a way for professionals in various fields to earn recognition for learning that occurs outside of their initial certification or licensure. These credits are often required for professionals to maintain their licenses and stay current in their field. In many cases, CE courses are offered by professional organisations, universities, or other educational institutions, and may cover a wide range of topics that are relevant to the professional's field.
This page lists a variety of courses on psychedelics that qualify for CE credits. These courses are designed for professionals in the mental health and medical fields, though many also accept the general audience for a slighly lower price. The courses cover a wide range of topics, including the history and current research on psychedelic therapy, safety and harm reduction, ethical considerations, and practical training in the administration and facilitation of psychedelic sessions. Upon completion of these courses, participants will have a thorough understanding of the use of psychedelics in therapy and will be equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely and effectively incorporate psychedelics into their practice.
It's worth noting that the field of psychedelic therapy is still emerging, but many continuing education courses are already available for those working with ketamine. Ketamine is already approved (Esketamine) and available (off-label) as a treatment option for mental health disorders such as depression and PTSD, and as such, many professionals are seeking to learn more about its use in therapy. The courses listed here provide an opportunity for professionals to stay current in their field, and to continue to learn about the safe and effective use of psychedelics (including ketmaine) in mental health treatment.
