Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need to attend all 4 sessions in order to get my final certificate of completion for the whole Certificate Course?
Yes. If you miss a live session, you will do its self-study (recorded) version prior to attending the subsequent week's live session. Otherwise, you risk accumulating gaps, which may, in turn, lead to an inability to use this model adequately to help your clients. You will therefore not be able to receive a final certificate of completion.
Can I start this Certificate Course even after it already started?
Yes, you can. We ask that you do the past, self-study (recorded) sessions prior to attending the subsequent week's live session.
Does this Certificate Course offer CEUs?
Please see the Key Information section at the top of the course page for detailed approval information. If you are a clinician licensed in NY, you will be eligible for CEU.
What are your reimbursement policies?
Anyone who registered for this Certificate Course through any of the payment plans, and who wishes to withdraw, for whatever reason, is entitled to full reimbursement, with no questions asked other than for improvement purposes. The full reimbursement will be minus the price of every single session attended by the date of the wish to withdraw.
