This
page provides information on the training required to meet that
component of certification. This training can be taken as a complete
program at one ST training program or an Independent Program can be put
together from the curriculum components of a variety of programs as long
as they add up to covering the entire required ST certification
curriculum. Here you will find the latest requirement for meeting the training requirements to apply for certification in Schema Therapy.
At
the request of training program directors in a number of countries and
with their input, the EB has developed a process for granting exceptions
to the current academic requirement (Masters degree or higher) to be
able to train in ST for certification. Below is the decision made by the
EB.
Please
note all of the online Training, whether for ST Certification or
Continuing Education Credit, must be provided live and may not include
continuous pre-recorded material (exceptions to this directive only
include brief video illustrations and demonstrations of clinical work).
The aim of this requirement is to guarantee real interactive
communication between participants and trainers. This includes all
didactic and dyadic material.
We want to make clear: All of the online Training, whether for ST Certification or Continuing Education Credit, must be provided live and may not include continuous pre-recorded material (exceptions to this directive only include brief video illustrations and demonstrations of clinical work).
